I can't find a subjective explanation of exactly what it is he wants - only the accusations of his detractors, which frankly, isn't very helpful and is ripe with speculation and insults.
I can see the concern over the financial end of the disagreement - public union workers want to keep benefits that are better than everyone else's that everyone else PAYS for in a time of budget deficits and a bad economy.
Even the unions at some point, concede that it is over the top and that it is really Walker's attempts to quash collective bargaining rights they principally object to.
When thus phrased, a USA Today poll finds that most Americans support the union's right to their collective bargaining rights, although I suspect almost none of them really know what the disagreement is over. Thus, the poll is suspect, because it posits the rights of one group against some person wanting to take them away.
What does he want? Can someone explain this part to me?
