Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

I love picturing this being said matter of factly from a husband to a spouse over morning coffee.
"Oh no, well that's now how this works at all... Time to beat the Governor to death, dear. Well, off I go for the day, see you at dinner"
Time for these cretins to get a history lesson first hand on why there are labor laws in this country. Why there is a forty hour work week. Why there is collective bargaining. Why its keeping them(the management) alive.
There isn't management for these jobs though. The people are the management. Both sides of the table are the same in the public sector.
Oh, wow.
That went after the cops, too.
That was really fucking stupid of them, you reward your foot soldiers just well enough to make them trust the system enough to defend it with their lives against their own class.
You let the cop "union" thrive and they'll kick every teacher to death on their overtime pay with gusto.
Probably don't have to pay them, they'll do it for free.
What they want is not pay, but the ability of harassing minorities.
Honestly surprised by cops being included in this. Wonder if that will bring major backlash in such a conservative state.
Narrator: it won't. They are too far gone with the indoctrination. They'll lament and get back in line, to cheer for the next one who got fucked that isn't them
You forgot that they'll also all go to Church on the weekend and tell each other what good people they are. Was it not Jesus who said, "No unions on my watch, pal."
Don't worry the Federal government will step .... Oh they just crippled the agency that prevents this. How convenient.

That's a good way to keep people out of a profession.
General strike from teachers, firefighters and police it is, then.
Don't count on cops for solidarity, even with something this blatant.
I feel like people forgot that this was the compromise.
If they'd like us to go back to dragging the boss out of his home in the middle of the night and beating him to death in front of his family I'm cool with that.
I keep thinking of the scene in Far and Away where they torch the manor house.
get luigi a 1up
Well, one win out of three isn't bad for Utah :o
My only surprise is they didn’t add nurses and doctors after that show of force went down, state wide, in Oregon this year.
Banning police unions is a no brainer.
Banning police unions is a no brainer.
they're downright fucking evil, a hideous example of what a union should be doing. they protect the worst of the worst and keep the city and force paying for their bullshit. and they show no solidarity to other unions.
They should strike anyways.
Union prevent heads in sticks, time for heads on sticks
