I "unioned" for 30 years and it was a CF.

So, by not having any experience in the 'private sector' I humbly will keep my opinions to myself.

Hey, whatever happened to the hack that wanted the "Mother of all Battles?"

And if Hugo Chavez gets overthrown, will Sean Penn and Oliver Stone run down to rescue him?

Two questions....what does "CF" mean? And secondly - I thought you worked for KP? That would be the 'private sector.'

So as not to confuse people - the public sector - means working for a federal, state or local government.

Everything else is the private sector.

semantics.

semantics. Okay....up or down - just semantics.

Right left - just semantics...Use them interchangably...right?

So what does "CF" mean?

cf. = compare (boy, I haven't typed that very often since I got out of school!)
chocolate frosting?

ES, you asked why take away a right other employees have? Is it because the governor thinks collective bargaining rights are not necessary for public sector employees, but the employees themselves do? I can't give you a better answer for that one. Could the federal government use the money they got back from the auto bail-out to help state governments? Would that work?

So if that buffoon of a governor thinks that equal pay for men and women is not necessary but the employees do think it is necessary...does that make the governor right?

The thing to remember - this is NOT about economics. The governor has made - since he took office - more tax breaks to corporations than the budget shortfall. In other words - he created it. This is about power. The unions have offered to go along with the economic consessions he seeks - if he will back off destroying the union. He will not.

POWER...you know the Fat Cats - taking it out of the working class.

or chocolate frosting...

or can't figure or ....

clueless faker....

I am just not sure...
