Spence, what you are doing in this thread, as usual, is throwing one pro-union talking point after another, out there, hoping something will stick. When you rpoints are shown to be irrelevant, you simply move down your list to the next desperate explanation. It never occurs to you that if eeberything you say can be so easily refuted, perhaps you are on the wrong side of the issue.

My favorite...the county here, offered salary increases of 14.5%. In return, they asked employees to pay 10% of the cost of their healthcare (still a fraction of what those in the private scetor pay).

Your response? "Just because you're in bad financial shape doesn't mean you don't have a government to operate"

So in your mind, offering a 14.5% raise with increased healthcare copays, is equivalent to shutting the government down and firing all these people? How does one get so far detached from reality? Do you really, seriously, work in business in some capacity? Do your customers realize that you cannot differentiate between giving your employees a 14.5% raise, and shutting down th eoperation?

Stupifying.
