I can't quite wrap my ahead around why billionaires are entitled to tax cuts but teachers and firefighters aren't entitled to pensions.
The way I think about it is, they work for us. And I am quite content to pay what is an insignificant amount of my own money in order to be a fair and ethical employer.
And if you don't like it, then find yourself a government job. That's the American way isn't it, after all? You don't like your job, you can go out and find the one you do want?
