As a matter or fact I'm not reading any crib notes that were provided to me, its called thinking with your own brain and READING. You should try it sometime, but that would require you to turn off Fox News and John Dipetro in order to think for yourself. Instead you are probably sitting home, collecting a social security check and medicare. while talking about government OVER-SPENDING. HAHAHA! Once again you've brought ZERO facts to the table. You can talk about the pension system being unsustainable all you want, but it was never due to the Unions not paying into it. 8.75% out of every check was sent from union membership to the pension system. Almost 10% of every check, that was one of the highest contributions in the COUNTRY. Where the system starts to break down is because the state never paid there share into it. For years they would defer payments, and then never put that money back in. They were plugging budget holes with money that was supposed to go to peoples retirement. All you do is use union bashing rhetoric, but you don't put any numbers into your argument. That's because you CANNOT think for yourself. I'm sure if somebody knocked on your door tomorrow and told you that your social security would be taken away, you would say something like "I paid into that system for years, how could that be?" Well how is that any different than what union members across the state are facing. People making $25,000-$35,000 a year. They weren't at the negotiating table, they weren't telling members of the GA to defer payments and never make them up. They were busting their ass, making their contributions and providing a public service all across this state. It's people like you that divide this state by placing blame on the unions. The people who pick up trash, work in hospitals, schools, libraries, snow removal etc. The blame belongs on the GA, the MAYORS (yes, your beloved Scottie A too!), and the governor. You'd have to explain where I used the "where is the crime" defense? Or was that just something you heard on Hannity? Wake up! Since you're so down on government and overspending than surely you won't mind sending back your social security check, and also not seeing Dr's anymore, because all that stuff costs taxpayers money. Although you've paid into it, the politicians haven't kept their word and so with your argument...apparently that's YOUR FAULT. You say you don't care, but please read up on this issue because you CLEARLY don't have a clue what's gone on in this state. Let me know if you need help packing!
