Part timers are not getting more hours because once they get between 30 and 35 hours per week, many companies consider it full time work and they become eligible for benefits like health insurance, retirement benefits, and paid vacation. With shortages of workers in jobs like food,lodging, and retail, employers want to give the ones they do have more hours, but corporate bean counters block this when benefits kick in. Just like they hate paying overtime even when needed.

Sorry, but I can't believe we're talking about the maps drawn in the dead of night covered with NDAs and attorney-client privilege claims. I get that a week old easter egg will do if we're starving, but can't we have an omelet for a change?

That's not how democracy works, although you can be somewhat forgiven for inferring that after the former guy's term.Votes, activism, support....but not violence.

Wisconsin is the How-To Guide. How to change a blue state to red. National elections expose the truth, a truth that some of the Wisconsin Supremes are absolutely willing to ignore. Power corrupts. People who use their intellect to argue for amoral, unfair bullshit are the worst kind of people.

"Dispurse" is the act of releasing your tightly closed sphincter.

It shows why all elections matter, not just the ones in Fall.Scott Walker couldn't have done what he did without the Wisconsin Supreme Court being a right wing Koch brothers court.
