Video Blog: Boxing Day, and a look ahead to 2011

Peter (hey, I spelled your name locrectry)- I guess we may only agree to disagree, but hear me out please.Politicians are influenced by both pro-union & anti-union money/lobbying. You state the status quo resists change, and I beg to differ. I have personally been involved in our union's last 4 contracts (spanning 12 years), and my union & city have come up with many creative ways to get deals done during negotiations. Surely, this has happened elsewhere as well. I come to this website to understand the anti-union side, and frankly, am appalled at the many generalizations some people state here regarding their anti-union views. Unions do realize municipalities' budgets aren't a bottomless pit today. Let the local jurisdictions negotiate without SB 5 (Issue 2).
