Ohio Is Like Wisconsin Which Is Like Egypt?

Good news, kids in Ohio! You’re about to get many days off (of course, that means you’ll have to make them up in late spring/early summer)

More than 8,000 protesters converged on Ohio’s state capital on Tuesday as state lawmakers considered a bill similar to one proposed in Wisconsin to curtail the power of public sector unions.

Republican supporters of the Ohio proposal said the limits to public workers’ ability to bargain are necessary to give local governments flexibility and help reduce the state’s two-year budget deficit of about $8 billion.

“In terms of people protesting, more power to them, this is democracy,” said State Sen. Kevin Bacon, the Republican chair of the senate’s Insurance, Commerce and Labor committee, which received a revised version of the bill Tuesday. But Bacon said “how much noise” people make isn’t the issue.

Obviously, this means that Republicans are not “pro-education” or something. And that the state capital grounds and buildings are going to be filthy and smell horrible in no time at all!
