Unfortunately nowadays these jobs are among the best paying and most stable around (once you’ve got a bit of seniority under your belt as protection against layoffs). Civil servants (cops, teachers) that have held onto their jobs are our new upper middle class here in NJ, and as much a part of Obama’s base as our unassimilated permanent underclass. When you rob Peter to pay Paul, you will always have the support of Paul.
