If there is a silver lining to this world wide economic crisis it is that the average citizen is begining to see that unions in general and public employee unions in particular are not good for the rest of us.

Will these hard times bring down public employee unions? I am beginning to get hope that it will.

These contracts will only get renegotiated when a particular county or state gov’t goes bankrupt. Many out of sight pensions have been fraudulently negotiated. Some pensions are being received right now. The only those get ratcheted down is when a county or state declares bankruptcy or something very close to that. They may choose the later, an orderly negotiated lite-bankruptcy, in order to keep their ability to float bonds
