Protests continue in Wisconsin and in Ohio.
Despite the nonstop propaganda by outfits like Fox "News," there is widespread support for the right of workers to collective bargaining. However, there is still this ignorant sentiment among too many people who believe public employees are the "haves," while private employees are the "have-nots."
In the end, these voters need to take some responsibility for their actions and finally realize they have been conned into voting against their self-interest. They need to understand that anybody who is not in the top one-percent of the population is at risk living in complete destitution in order to enrich the tiny few. It's been a thirty-year con, but it is still a con.
