Public employee unions should not exist.

When a private individual or business negotiates with a union we can be assured that they have their own best interest at heart - and the penalty for too generous concessions to the union could mean a decline in market share or profitability and possibly going out of business.

When politicians negotiate with a public employee union, one that could (and probably did) contribute to the campaign of those politicians - the politicians do NOT have the taxpayers best interest at heart - and the penalty for too generous concessions to the union will mean a dramatic increase in taxes and possible municipal bankruptcy.

NO PUBLIC EMPLOYEE UNIONS!

In Jefferson County, Ala. — county commissioners were voting to default on a general obligation bond payment.

Stockton, Calif., ...recently announced that it would default on a payment coming due to general obligation bondholders.

This idea that bondholders should not take losses is ludicrous.

It's no wonder the DOW's 13,000, there no where else to go when bond issuers default, and inflation eats purchasing power. And municipal bonds used to be sold as a great investment.

The stock bet is

(stocks you hold increase in value) > (stocks you hold of businesses Democrats will put out of business.)
