Discussing for solutions

No solutions will come of not discussing a problem. It is evident that the Wisconsin gov. has not intentions of giving in. That doesn't teach anyone anything but being stubborn makes you look like a dictator. Is that what we want our children to learn. Isn't it better to sit down and discussing a problem civally with an outcome that both people would be happy with. Have we come to this kind of behavior - bullying isn't right for our children - why is it right for our legislators.

The governor isn't bullying anyone. The people elected him to fix the budget problems in the state. He is doing what is necessary. The bill in the legislature doesn't take away or diminish anyone's job, benefits or salary. If they don't reduce the spending, some jobs will have to be lost. Why is it right for some legislators to flee the state when they know they can't win any other way? Is that a good lesson for children? If you don't want to do your job, just hide out and take a paycheck for doing nothing? The union protesters have been videotaped harassing people for their views, including racist remarks to a gay, black tea partier and someone being told he is a "bad jew" for not agreeing with the union position. A burly CWA thug knocked a 5'1" girl with a cell phone camera to the ground. Racism, stereotyping by ethnicity and beating up on girls? I don't think the union thugs can lecture anyone on bullying, but they could give lessons - they're good at it.
