    And it seems like they're always on strike!!

    If the American Public had any idea how much money they make, and how they have so much impact on consumer pricing.... It's ridiculous. These guys have America by the balls.

    Everyone rips on lawyers and public employees. Fuck man, the longshoremen should be the butt of jokes.

    If they're so unhappy with their high compensation that they can afford to strike in these current economic times....... fire their asses and give the jobs to those in need (and who would likely work for far less).

    My supervisor was showing me his property tax statement. 18% is added to all property taxes to go directly to PERS retirement program. It's the single largest expenditure of property taxes towards any single entity.
