At approximately 12:15pm MSNBC just ran a piece where they played a phone conversation between Dave Koch and Gov. Scott Walker.
[Start paraphrasing] Gov. Walker can be heard telling Dave Koch what he and other Governor's can accomplish and Dave Koch tells him you are the "first domino" and Walker responds with "this is our moment". [End paraphrasing]
Gov. Walker and other republican governor's around this country are in a conspiracy to manufacture budget deficit's or make it appear that their state's are in dire financial trouble so that they can win the electorate over to support their cause to eliminate "Unions". They are not doing this to avoid negotiating with their employees, they are doing this to weaken the collective voice of workers who support political candidates that support working-families.
This may even be a larger objective to destroy all political parties other than the Republican party and it is being done at the expense of working families. Their effort has nothing to do with getting wage and benefit concessions, that they are clearly getting, example Wisconsin, but rather destroy the "collective voice" of the citizens.
