Then increase tax contributions from people earning over $250,000/yr and that will also help the majority of tax-payers.

However, the point is the government and the union entered into a contract in good faith. Since when is one party arbitrarily canceling/altering a contract the "decent" thing to do?

Let's say the unionized folks worked 8 hours/5 days a week from 8 to 4:30 with 1/2 an hour for lunch during the 90s when governments were raking in the $$$. Imagine the union arbitrarily deciding the employees could go home at 1:30 on Fridays while still demanding the same compensation. (40 hours - 8% (3.2 hrs) = 36.8)

I wonder if anyone would have had a problem with that. :rolleyes:

Re: your comment about contracts, I talked about canceling contracts when the bankers were still getting big bonuses from after the financial meltdown, and righties were all over me about it. I guess it's different for the hoi polloi.

They also had a fit about Wall Street bonuses.

Has anyone else noticed Crashk never actually debates anyone? He just stops by and posts one of his insane rants, and when someone points out his error, he either responds with something completely irrelevant or takes off.

Debate? I post my views and there is no debate, you guys insult me and never do your research. You let Beck do your research for you.
Insane? It's insane what the right has done to the people of this country and you support that insanity.
