“Governor Walker’s Victory Spells Doom For Public Sector Unions”

I will NEVER have any faith or happiness in headlines like this.

Went through unbridled joy at Reagan’s second term election only to see it all fade. Really believed we had achieved something in ‘94 when we took the House and Senate, only to see the bent one allowed another four years to infest the White House. After Sept 11 I really thought the country had learned and turned - but found out the hard way that it hadn’t.

One thing I have learned is to never underestimate the determination liberal scumbags, nor how gullible the sheeple are when it comes to liberal BS.

“I will NEVER have any faith or happiness in headlines like this.”

I do believe that the public sector employees will be seeing their packages reduced closer to the “new normal” that their employers (taxpayers) have been dealing with for years now. Here in NJ, the public sector had gotten so bad it was similar to the “Quartering Act” (in which colonists had to put up British soldiers prior to the American Revolution). Each household has been paying the bill for .25 teachers, .25 law enforcement personnel, .25 firemen/emergency personnel, and .25 public works employees; basically here in NJ each household got the bill for “quartering” one public employee (OK, it wasn’t that high a bill, but it was high - while our “real” salaries fell). They elected Christie in response, we’ve had waves of layoffs (that aren’t done yet), and Christie would handily win re-election.
