re: #152 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

There’re gonna be referendums like this all over the country.

I’d like to see the phrasing change, rather than “anti-union” I think the main problem is more “anti-pension”.

I’m sorry, that’s not true. The law is about limiting collective bargaining, not about pensions.

Pensions are going to choke out budgets, even Jerry Brown’s gonna have to face it.

Then governments shouldn’t promise things that they can’t pay to workers.

We have a contract with the current retirees, it seems wrong to renege on that promise (no matter how bloated it may be, unless it was improperly set up), but looking forward? I think there are limits that can be set.

Sure. That’s not what this law is.
