To steal Glenn's line: Faster, please: "The greatest anger among [Wisconsin public-sector union] demonstrators is over the portion of the bill that would strip public workers of the right to bargain for higher wages, benefits and changes to job duties. Pay raises for public workers would be subject to voter approval. Under the law, the state would also stop withholding union dues from government paychecks and make due payments strictly voluntary."

And isn't it interesting, that this is the very first time I've read what has the Wisconsin unions up in arms? And isn't it interesting that this information was buried deep in the article? I'll also wager that the first point, the "right to bargain," is a distortion. Other places I've read state the bill is stripping the right to collective bargaining, in other words (as I understand it) banning union strong-arm tactics. An important distinction.
