Wet your finger, hold it up and blow on it. That coolness is how taxpayers increasingly feel towards public-sector unions.
The winds of change that started in Wisconsin with Scott Walker will spread to California.
The Tea parties – plural and unique — are part of that change. Santa Cruz Sentinel letter writers Mr. Sosbee, Mr. Pat Browne and others are welcome to join a local Santa Cruz County (California) “respectable, responsible and respectful†group of tea party citizens. The Tea Party of Mid-County Santa Cruz’s goal: create more organic community gardens. You need a shovel and seed to join.
By the way, there are 20+ Community Garden Plots available in Mid-County Santa Cruz County. At Christ Lutheran Church. You pay only for the cost of the water. Come meet neighbors and grow healthy, local food.
And while you dig your community garden plot — lets talk about national politics!
Now that we know where Obama was born — what about publishing the articles that Obama wrote for the Harvard Law Review? How about his senior thesis — what was the topic and main points? How well does he actually write?
And let’s talk about the public sector unions, about their connection to Obama’s 2012 Presidential campaign, about “money laundering” such that my SEIU dues end up in the Democratic Party coffers which support political causes I do not support.
Is it time that California became a “right to work” state and people who MUST join a union have a choice NOT to join a union.
A union says that an aircraft company cannot leave the state of Washington and go to another state (South Carolina) where labor costs are lower. We have laws that protect welfare recipients so they can move to California where benefits are higher. But unions can prevent companies from moving to another state? Does this make sense? What say you ?
