Post 19 is confusing. Are you for or against Ohio sb 5? As in Wisconsin, Ohio had allowed government unions to acquire power, money and an arm lock on politicians to the point the government unions were calling the shots in their employment situations. Management rights were nonexistent and we working taxpayers were on the hook for overly generous pensions and health benefits. Benefits much better than those average citizens had in private employment.
Now that states and the federal government can no longer fund the lavish lifestyles of public employees without more borrowing and taxing, a roll back was necessary. The roll back is only possible if SB 5 goes into effect. Without it Ohio is as broke as a lot of other spendthrift states. Better a law goes into effect than pushing Ohio taxpayers off the cliff.

Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner, RicocheT.
I guess FReeper LS sums my feelings about unions in post #13.
“Sick of all unions. Hate ‘em. Worst thing that ever happened to American business.”
I’m sick of all forms of socialism/socialists. It is what is killing this country.
