Our California govenor has
come up with a brilliant idea. Since the "leaders" can't come up with a budget,
f&%k the workers.

I think it is an attempt
(misguided) to put pressure on the 'leaders'. Just remember all of them when it comes time to consider their
ongoing employment as your public servants. Personally, when an employee does such a poor job for me I fire them. In
this case I think the entire elected government of California needs to be fired since you guys go through this crap
every year.
Yes, taking it out on the workers is a terrible idea. Take it out on the elected representatives who
can't do their jobs. Stop paying them until they get the problem solved. And lock the bathrooms too, that will help
speed their deliberations.
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

Similar proposal in Chicago. Due to
budget problems they are talking about mandantory days off. Lower-paid workers will get 2 days of unpaid time off
and higher paid ($75K/yr) will be required to take 3 days off. Will supposedly save millions of $.
PS this
only applies to non-union workers at the moment.
Add to this the fact that Cook
County Illinois (including the
city-state of Chicago) now has the highest sales tax in the nation at 10.25%
The opposite of love isn't hate.
It's apathy.
Figures. The "leaders" F things up
then take it out on the "powerless" workers who weren't the ones who set policies that F'ed things up in the first
place.

If the 'powerless workers'
would stop voting the same thieves into office we wouldn't keep seeing the same old crap time and again. Do people
have any memory at all?
There once was a campaign in California called D.R.I.P. It means 'Don't Return
Incumbant Politicians' and was one of the last sensible things I saw in California politics.
