Why is it that no one gave a [censored] about Public Employee Unions or Unions period until the economy hit the toilet? WTF did Unions do to create this recession? Nothing, but yet they are as popular as Wall Street and lets face it folks, Wall Street (Corporations) is the largest reason the economy went into this deep recession. Who's making money now? Who got baild out? Yeah, its just wrong that some friggin teacher makes about $47k a year. Wow all those yachts down in Elliot Bay must belong to teachers and all the other rich public employees.

Working class folks, which probably fits most of you, are still suffering, but yet some have drank way to much of the mis-direction Koolaid that wants you to believe that your suffering because of some other working stiff who happens to belong to a Union.



It's easy to blame the little guy making a $hit income with relatively meager benefits, while the banker who was already making $200 million a year runs away with $50 million of money given to him by the federal government so he can go and stash it in a Cayman Islands account, tax free. The problem is people like Hankster and JohnQ have been brainwashed into protecting the ultra-rich like it's their job, and then turn around and blame the unions (and academia) for causing various demises in our country.
