Dr. Hall:
I believe the “union busting” action is only so that the union will not sit on both ends of the table. The union has no problem giving back, they can get back more from the next democrat administration. The key here is limiting raises (of all types of benefits, including healthcare, hours and pensions) to the rate of inflation, and requiring a referendum to go higher.
The union will still exist, even under the bill. If the union would agree that all future raises, including benefits, would be subject to a statewide referendum, and “right to work”, then Gov. Walker would probably be willing to move forward.
