Problem is the Unions have bloated the salaries and pensions so much they don't have enough taxpayer money to pay them. What a shame, so now who suffers, the people like u and me.

You nailed it. I'm up there in age and for 10 or more years. I've been seeing this generation of 30 year olds become more and more like followers. If your 30 and bringing home some serious money, then it becomes very easy, almost like second nature to want to say "it's not my problem, I don't have any" but they don't realize what laws pass now will eventually effect not only them, but their loved ones when their 40 or 80. Children think like that. They live for the moment.
Unions are laughing all the way to the bank.
