...because even the laughably corrupt legislature and hopelessly apathetic population in Illinois isn't stupid enough to let something like this fly. http://gawker.com/wisconsin-is-trying-t ... 1716293116 |

It seems that it's voluntary rather than mandatory. That being said I've worked many 13 day weeks. Particularly in winter. |

"Hi Derek! My name’s Little Cletus and I’m here to tell you a few things about child labor laws, ok? They’re silly and outdated. Why back in the 30s, children as young as five could work as they pleased; from textile factories to iron smelts. Yippee! Hurray!"

How soon do you think it would be for "voluntary" to become mandatory? Once they get a foot in the door they'll do everything thy can to push it open. Fucking unions though... |

Amazing how people forget that the single most destructive event to our nation's economy was caused by a bunch of wall street scumbags and bankers. But those people who get a pension??? Burn' em at the stake !!!!! NO WEEKENDS OFF !!!!! |

So a bunch of the working poor got together and sued the state because $7.25/hr isn't a living wage. Wisconsin state law requires to state to set a living wage floor. Walker is trying to sneak through changing the definition in the law from living wage to minimum wage. I like to call it dying wage. Dying wage for dying state. |

Their pension is 100% funded. I look longingly for such fiscal sanity. |

Wisconsin is losing jobs at a faster pace than Illinois. I guess that's what happens when the unions get gutted. Fire two guys, make the third do their work and still pay $7.25/hr for the privilege.  There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to run this state? |

This is being buried...the bigger outcry is over the way they tried to wipe out the public records law on state officials. That escalated quickly. Fastest backpedal I've seen in a long time. |
