“I just wish for more integrity in the state governments.”
The only integrity needs to be backed by penalties to the so-called leaders to include jail time, loss of savings, job, etc. No more federal employee unions, ever—outlawed! If leadership misses metrics, they can be disciplined, severely. The partial to total collapse of this country offers some possibilities to correct all the wrongs foisted on us by both parties for so long. They want to serve? Then serve at minimal pay. No retirement, no special medical, term limits, no PACs, etc. A felony? Cannot “serve”, ever! And on and on.
Some return to judeo-Christian moral values would help too. These used to be considered core to A successful life and society. But when folks leave churches they often are left without any moral footing.
Federal government employee unions can be done away with by revoking JFK’s EO allowing them. State\county\municipal employee unions will need likely need state legislation to end them. First step would a 50 state right-towork law.
