Ditto! We've got to have the guts to let states go bankrupt!

Taxpayers are told ad infinitum that government workers' pensions and benefits are "protected" by the state constitutions. No one can do anything to change them. They are guaranteed!

Well, how come my rights aren't protected by the constitution? How come, while our own retirement funds are dwindling, we are told we need to plan on paying more in taxes to cover the retirement funds of government workers. In other words, even in retirement, we will be paying out of our own funds to pay for theirs.
