      <![CDATA[When I look at the union busting going on in Wisconsin, I can sympathize with unions. But when I look at the greed, lies and outright thuggery of Local 42, it makes me wish we could import a bit of the union-busting ideas.<br><br>I will certainly think twice when it comes to supporting ANY of the current city council members who voted for the excessive raises.<br><br>Also, what will it take to launch an investigation of the ethically challenged Cirrco who refuses to abstain from voting in order to vote for raises for her husband and his cronies?
