A stunning public conversation


This video from the Heritage Foundation is a real demonstration of the differences in perception and message between the public employee unions and the average taxpayer.   Governor Walker's proposal would make significant changes in the way Wisconsin public employees deal with their employer but it would also set some balance that has not been present in many states for a very long time.  Public employee pensions and benefits are significantly out of the market.  So, indeed, are their salaries.    This is a superb demonstration of how the issue is being formed.
