How in the world did the city stiff them on pay? Aren’t there union contracts?
Watch out for this crap occurring in your own local governments. The more urban you are the worse this crap will be, because liberals in charge gave away the store and have no hope of covering what is owed. Like every “solution” they will confiscate more money from YOU to give to other groups that funded their campaigns and was a voting bloc for them.
For those people the libs always go to bat for them. Money flowing to them means money flowing to dem campaigns. Campaign promises made to the citizens they represent, hey, those were campaign promises. You can’t expect to hold me to those.
Think of all the underfunded pension plans across the nation. I’m not sure if this is the case in New Orleans, but in many cities past leaders made promises to unions for votes in exchange for good government salaries and pensions. They did so by putting the burden on future tax payers. It sounds to me the chickens are starting to come home to roost.
People are going to start finding out they were snookered.
