>> what will you say when they go out on strike? same thing?
Abso-floggin-lutely! If you'd rather b!tch and moan than bust out a good day's work; get yer taillights down the road, Jack, and don't let the doorknob hit ya where the Good Lord split ya.
You're making $60K and moaning about making ends meet? Tough! But, I don't have a salary problem, YOU have a spending problem. Maybe you CAN'T really afford that new Escalade with the 22" spinners, leather interior, On-Star and GPS navigation. Maybe that $650,000 house is just a teeny-weeny bit out of your financial universe. Maybe that Alaskan cruise with the family ISN'T realistic after all.
Ya think?!
Maybe, instead of whining and crying and going out on strike, you need to go back to school. Maybe you need a totally different career. If you don't like the life you have, maybe, just MAYBE the person who needs to take the initiatve to fix it is -- YOU!
Personal responsibility: What a NOVEL concept!
oh how you must wish to be me. only i don't like escelades, i have a jag, sorry.
my point is that most people want public employees to have the same rights as everybody only when it hurts them. where were you when they took away their right to strike?
i think you're trying to be consistent here, but your rantings seem to get in the way. and your opinion of public workers is a tad skewed by pre-conceptions and negative stereotypes. don't let envy riun your conception of equality and fairness.
