Before tonight's Illegal Meeting and Vote in Wisconsin State Senator Fitzgerald admitted what this is all really about.
If we win this battle, and the money is not there under the auspices of the unions, certainly what you’re going to find is President Obama is going to have a much difficult, much more difficult time getting elected and winning the state of Wisconsin.
What's going on here is the Looting of America, we're being Fleeced - they're trying to Steal Our Country from US and install their own aparachiks into power. They used to call this the "Permanent Majority" project, now it's the conversation of America into a Corporate Feudal State. The Have More's vs the Have Nothings.
There is only one way to stop this - A General Strike.
The South Central Federation of Labor, an umbrella organization representing more than 45,000 workers in Wisconsin, < b>voted last night to endorse a general strike if the state legislature passes Gov. Scott Walker's budget repair bill, the Wisconsin State Journal reports.
About 100 delegates of the 97-union federation voted unanimously in favor of the strike, and called for the group to start educating its members and affiliates on the "organization and function of a general strike." There were no details available about how the strike would work or how many workers would take part.
About 68,000 people came out Saturday to protest the bill, which would strip public employee unions of most collective bargaining rights. Protests are now entering a second week but were smaller today as most teachers returned to work.

This is going to be much more than just a set of Demonstrations and Protests at the State Capitals of Wisconsin, Michigan, Idaho and Ohio - this could mean a walkout and General Strike of State Workers, Teachers, Fire-Fighters and Police across the Country.
And this is why...
As Naomi Klien explained Yesterday, this is the Shock Doctrine in Effect and Practice.
16 Years Ago when Bill Clinton faced off over the Federal Budget with Newt Gingrich they demanded that the only Bills they would even consider had to Balance by 2002. Those bill were handled in the House by then Budget Chairman JOhn Kasich - who is now Governor of Ohio - and in each case all those bills before implementing drastic and painful cuts to Social Security & Medicare in the last few years first Implemented a Massive Tax Cut for the Rich.
The plan then is the same as the plan now. Clinton then blocked those cuts, but George W. Bush implemented them and continue the hollowing out of the American Tax Base - leading ultimately to where we are now - forced at gun point to accept drastic painful cuts to legitimate and necessary public services. Thousands of Government employees are likely to lose their jobs? So Be it they say.
They want to defund the Democratic Base, privatize and implement a Fire Sale of Public Servces in order to continue to enrich their crony constituents on Wall Street. Tax Cut/Kick Backs to the Rich and a stiff elbow to the chin for working people.
That's the Republican Plan - and it has been completely revealed today. Now, we fight back and we don't stop fighting until these Reps and Senators are Recalled and every trace of this travesty is erased.
They've think the Tea Party was Scary? They've just awoken a sleeping giant, the Working People of America. Let them quake.
