From 2000 to 2009, taxpayers paid $12.6 billion for public employee pensions, while the employees only contributed $55.4 million, less than 0.5% of the total cost.

In staging sick-outs and protests over a request that they make a modest 5.8% contribution to their pensions and pay 12.6% of their health insurance premiums (half the national average), state employees look greedy and selfish.

In California, when you retire from the state,you do so with 95% of your pay and you don't have to contribute to it, it's fully funded by California. Name any private sector jobs that do that?


And do me a favor, I have BryanG on ignore, because he's too much of a pussy to say this to my face, don't quote him

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
