To bad this republican right wing governor hasn't figured out that when a group of people like employees either state or private vote to have representation, its done with a 50+1 majority (democracy) and they voted for it for a reason to protect themselves from people like him and from the National Right to Work for Less corporations and businesses and the Authoritarian Capitalists.
But not this governor he makes the rules the way he wants them, to hell with a democratically represented 50+1 vote.

But not in the right wing republican, libertarian, tea party world lets have two sets of books, that's the ticket, just like AIG, Lehman Brothers, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, UBS, Credit Swiss, ect.... with no accountability until after the fact, guess who bailed them out, the United States Treasury for and by the people of this country for 850 billion.

And this is what is going to happen in this state with this governor in my opinion, because there will be a short fall in obligations.

Then when some of these employees that keep voting against there best interest because they are suckers, because they haven't figure this out yet that the millionaires & billionaires get cronies in the leadership positions (which was bought and paid for with campaign contributions wanting pay back thanks to a corrupt U.S. Supreme court, like in campaign contributions that corporations are people to mantra and the evisceration of union representation and the steady decline of middle class standard of living in the last 40 years because of ruling against the worker, and money is now free speech----right) and the millionaires that work for the other millionaires and billionaires getting tax breaks and bonuses of 937% while a suckers gets only 12.5% in the last twenty years, says a lot of about this country and what the politically connected think of the American worker-----not much.
Then you have the suckers, the middle class state and private workers thinking that if they don't have to pay these dues, they'll get tax breaks just like the billionaires and millionaires and "one" day they'll be just like them the dream is almost there, I have got to vote against my best interests.

Then they wonder why there benefits are not there---duh!!!
Ever heard of a ponzi scheme, or better yet a three card monte, or the proverbial shell game table?

That they will have there pension funds and Social Security privatized for greed, there medicare and Medicaid care privatized for greed, there kids education will be privatized for greed, there sewer and water will be privatized for greed, the list goes on and on, and then they whine that there union dues are being diverted to help them with the 50+1 majority system of a democracy while at the same time you have politicians such as this governor attacking them from the back side, while the cronies keep getting wealthy with the tax breaks.

I just wonder if any of them just looked at there 2015 taxes to see how they are getting screwed because the things they used to be able to deduct is now gone, (interest on credit cards, interest on car payments, full deduction on health care, partial deduction in education fees, union dues, ect...), because of the subsidizes (former deductions) are being passed up to the billionaires and millionaires if the sucker doesn't meet the AGI adjusted gross income threshold, while the crooks keep getting tax breaks.
