“Do you consider an Illinois Firefighter, or a State Highway Patrolman, or a city cop, an honest job? what about a schoolteacher?”
Honest jobs, all. They have a beef with the liars who promised them the impossible, all right, but they have no right to a dime that has to be appropriated by the people’s representatives in the current session.
All of these union “contracts” are facially invalid, because they purport to bind future legislatures.
They are going to have to accept a hair cut or nothing.
