Cities and local governments are now going to start falling like dominoes, state governments too. The greedy government union socialist utopia workers will not even know what hit them. Cushy pension and medical plans up in smoke.

Socialism works great until you run out of other people's money.

though I’m sure there out there, I don’t have links. But I do have first hand experience with regard to layoffs from these companies:

NORTHROP GRUMMAN- 2nd largest defense contractor

LOCKHEED MARTIN- Largest Defense contractor

L-3 COMMUNICATIONS - Huge company, not sure how big but they are international

Don’t forget Lockheed [and other gov’t contracting] employees in VA. Estimated to be something like 200K ...

Obama got the companies to violate the FEAR Act by telling them that the gov’t would pay the fines if they would NOT send layoff notices by 1 Oct [as required by law] ...

They didn’t send out the notices - and Obama avoided an uptick in UE ...

The day AFTER the election, Lockheed gave out the pink slips [according to a guy who called in to the “Morning Majority” on WMAL 630 radio]. He just got his - and he knows of at least 3000 more ...

Way to go VA [in the election] - and have a MERRY CHRISTMAS !!! Hope you can buy presents, meet your mortgages, and put food in your childrens’ mouths ...

Ho !!! Ho !!! Ho !!!
