Do public union employees honestly believe that the private sector employees who fund their pensions........?

Yes, and you want the whole pie. It is illegal usually for much of the public sector to go on strike. Their employers passed that law.

Public sector employees do much of the safety work and raise most of the revenue your state runs on. Why is it your ilk think people who work for a living should not be able to negotiate their wages while you take away any clout they may have. You think everyone works for you, while you benefit as well from workers.

I don't think that teachers with master's should start off at poverty wages while you bail out Wall Street, the banks, corporations and give subsidies to agribusiness ($20 Billion), Ethanol ($7 Billion), Oil ($60 billion) and have given $4.8 Trillion in tax-cuts while you complain about public sector employees. Can you fire them, yes, Reagan did. But you really don't want to do that.

What you really want is to turn them into "Private Sector" jobs so they CAN strike And make a profit. That makes no sense at all, but then your ilk seldom does!

No taxpayers cant, if the strike is illegal the agency they work for might be able to depends on the circumstances.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
