I just think its armchair quarter backing to want to take peoples retirement away from them because the state made mistakes when it comes to the budget, you can't keep having your taxes lowered for the last 30 years and expect that all those things we need government to do for us, is not going to cost you, and to have qualified people in these jobs it is still going to cost you,
and yes, I was serious, try applying for a government job sometime and see what the qualifications are for a job like that, anyone else with that sort of education, without the benefits package would not even consider the position.

I do not speak the liberal language, it is incomprehensible. But in English or American, BENEFITS are DOLLARS!!
The ONLY thing I NEED the Government to do for me is listen to the people, follow our own laws and stay the hell out of my life,,,,and wallet! There is no translation into liberal speak for that statement.
Half of all the money the Gov. TAKES from us is wasted, the other half is "spent" on liberal bullsh!t programs that have never worked throughout history and will never work.
