Heaven forbid they want the union members to pay a small portion into their own retirement to help reduce the debt the state faces. The OP did not equate unions to commies but since you brought it up...

Every private employee and citizen in that state are paying for the comfortable retirement of the public employees...many WI public employees currently pay less than 1% into their own retirement...the citizens pay the rest. Sound a bit like redistribution of wealth? Except in this case they are not robbing the rich to give to the poor, they are robbing everyone to give to corrupt public employees protected by unions. That to me sounds a lot like how commies work. It makes me sick that these a-holes think they shouldn't have to invest in their own pensions. IMO the 5% they are asking these people pay into their pensions is not even close to enough...private sector employees are lucky if they only have to pay 50%. Damn entitled self absorbed whining bitches.

If the Dems and unions there win this fight, the state will go even more broke and none of them will get any pension. It doesn't stand a chance of getting fixed if collective bargaining stays on the table. Pay a little or lose it all...this will happen all over the country.
