I believe the way we are being sold on this bill is if the union employed people are not able to or willing too come up with some of there benifits, then the city's and tax payers will have to keep picking up the tab... Maybe i am wrong but if the City is out of money and the tax payers do not accept more tax increases then what else can you do BUT shut fire stations and police hubs down? Maybe i am wrong here and if i am someone please explain to me what i am missing? Please don't get this wrong either, my brother is a police officer but i would rather see him have to pay into his benifits rather than lose his job because the city cannot afford to have local police on the streets, and will have to rely on the Sherriff's dept to police the town.
