Evidently the only ones who are actually gullible enough to actually but that crap like that are the union minions. The teacher's unions are pro's at playing that stupid game, you'd think the teachers were smarter than that! (Or at least more honest).

If the gubmint budgets had not gotten completely out of control they wouldn't have to be adjusted and in most cases those budgets are still growing, just by not as much as the unions want.
BTW the reason the gubmints are having to watch the dollars? UNION PENSION PROGRAMS are bankrupting them.
Maybe if those departments you speak of were a little more EFFICIENT they might be able to do their jobs without demanding budgets of $millions upon millions to carry out simple tasks.
Privatize it all and we'll start seeing competent people actually DO WORK!
Or just get rid of unions for all public employees and we'll start to see the light at the end of a tunnel and this time it won't be a train heading towards us!
Yeah......I can see you're one of those folks who love to blame and criticize, but who also don't seem to understand the fairly simple concept that if you withdraw your support for a program (or a business for that matter) and insist that your legislature and/or Congress slash their budget mercilessly, that this could, just may, perhaps might impact the service you get from that organization. Could happen, Sammy.

But you go ahead and insist on those massive budget cuts while you expect improved service.
