NY to Wisconsin: How can we help?
And not just NYers are thinking these thoughts, 'course.

So far, there's the online petitions that drop into my inbox by the digital truckload. Ok; ezy enough.

But tell us, Cheese-heads: what would REALLY help?

This earlier thread generated some ideas:

But what say ye? What do you NEED RIGHT NOW?

1. We need Madison-sized protests around the country
We need you to be proactive, not reactive. Protest BEFORE they try to bust your unions and take away collective bargaining.

2. Word. And *heard*. Here.....
... they're trying to achieve this *incrementally*.

>>>Protest BEFORE they try to bust your unions and take away collective bargaining.>>>>


It's easy to take them at face value: they say the unions want/have too much.

But what they *really* object to is the very *idea* of UNIONS.

Your governor seems to have blown their cover. A silver lining there, perhaps.
