Politicians need to be altered...

I have come to the firm conclusion that all Politicians need to be altered in some way shape or form, that is highly undesireable so that they don't get into politics just for the ego trip like Scott Walker has. Before we go any further let's get a few things straight. First off I am Anti-Union. Despite my family affiliation to one of the BIGGEST unions in the nation and a second family affiliation to the formation of THE biggest umbrella labor organization in the US, I am not blind to the graft and greed of large national unions that call themselves "international" (what ever happened to truth in advertising???) even though they stop at the borders. And Secondly I AM a Conservative, a Constitutionalist to be precise.
I am so sick of these criminally inspired politicians (like Scott Walker) who are spewing lies just to distract the people from their real agendas, and the ignorant masses who wont look at the real facts and figures. Walker started wagging the dog by attacking the Teachers Union in Wisconsin. Nobody is willing to look up the fact (even though they have looked up the salaries for the individual independent school districts) that teachers in Wisconsin are not employed by the state. Not even Wisconsinites. Next Walker claimed that State workers earned 44K a year plus benefits to start. Now he says he has to cut millions from the education system, which was already cut to the bone, he is trying to make this look like it is the teachers fault even though it was in the same bill as the cuts to the teachers contracts that would remove their right to collective bargaining. Now because he isnt getting his way he claims he has to lay off 1500 state workers (remember, they make 44 K a year?) to save 30 million... well it's obvious that Walker is NOT a college graduate, since he cant do even simple math since 30,000,000 divided by 1,500 only equals 20,000 NOT 44,000(plus benefits), And lets not forget, the national poverty level is 21,000 dollars a year... And of course this is BEFORE the additional seven thousand, two hundred dollars he is demanding they pay for insurance... Insurance that they took wacge concessions in the past ten years worth of contracts to keep their insurance... so the reality is THEY SHOULD be paid the 44K and pay the 7,200 additional for insurance for equitable employment and insurance coverage. But the figures do not lie, Wisconsin State Employees ARE under paid while Walker makes close to 200K, gets free rent in the Governors Mansion (which costs over 1.5 million to operate) a chef, house keepers, cars (including limo service) free health insurance a retirement package that is equal to his FULL wage and benefit package all on our dime... SO WHO really is screwing the Wisconsin tax payers? His inaugeration SHOULD hav included a ceremonial castration...
