How so?Issue 2 attempts to solve Ohio’s budget problems on the backs of teachers, police officers,
nurses and firefighters and will contribute to the loss of an estimated 51,000 jobs.

False.Issue 2 will make it harder for emergency responders, firefighters and police to negotiate for
critical safety equipment, staffing levels and training that prevent injuries and save lives.

They're trying to argue that more people will be laid off if SB 5 passes. The unspoken part of that is: we won't have power over the (city, county, board) to push staffing levels where we want them, so people will be laid off.WebFire;933805 wrote:How does it lose jobs? Or is that just fear mongering founded on nothing?
The truth: SB 5 will allow for more reasonable contracts and there will actually be less layoffs, because the union won't be insisting on a maximum raise, even if it means some people lose their jobs, which is what has been happening more and more as the economy went bad.

and you shouldnt care about how public workers are paid. whats next, individual citizens controlling how their little kids teacher is paid? you give your tax money(which YOU voted on) to the city officials (who YOU voted into office). whats next, controlling what public workers spend their money on? i mean, it is your money isnt it?WebFire;933802 wrote:I could care less how the private sector decides to pay it's peeps.

Funny, you didnt care 5, 10, 20 years ago etc. Do you request a copy of the city and state budget every year to review it? Do you review each salary of every public worker and review their evaluations? there are probably a lot of things you wouldnt want your tax money spent on.WebFire;934157 wrote:Really?

heck, what about the health of public workers. you are paying their salary and insurance, should public workers be banned from smoking, drinking, skydiving etc? imagine how much money would be saved if workers were sick less and lived longer.
what piece? i dont remember posting a piece. HOWEVER, its probably about as true as everyone saying SB5 will save cities money.The piece posted said up to 51,000 jobs would be lost. How?

Haha. When's the last time you bought insurance? You pay more when you smoke. Derp. Besides that, I have no idea what your argument even is here.Glory Days;934327 wrote:heck, what about the health of public workers. you are paying their salary and insurance, should public workers be banned from smoking, drinking, skydiving etc? imagine how much money would be saved if workers were sick less and lived longer.

They want Big Government to step in, confiscate the wealth, and redistribute the "new revenue stream" to insure we all live as one big happy global family nursed by the nanny state.
They're pissed because Barry promised to be their "hope & change" Messiah.
The incredible thing is as much as they've turned on their Messiah in their "occupy Wall Street" idiocy, they'll flock to the polling places next November and pull the lever for BHO once again.

They also seem to be, by the amount of coverage, making this appear to be a bigger movement than it is. I was flipping stations on the radio on the way to lunch and Dave Ramsey was talking about this subject. He gave the factoid that there were more people in the stadium for the Monday night football game than people participating in this protest nationwide. If this is indeed the case, the "movement" can be described in a single word - insignificant.believer;935215 wrote:The MSM chastised, lambasted, skewered, demonized, and ridiculed the Tea Party movement yet they seem to be going out of the way to shed the best possible light on these kook fringe lunatics to portray them as "mainstream, disaffected Americans" who are tired of Wall Street greed.
