Wait....these people elected him, and he turns on them in favour of kissing up to Washington?
If he really wants to save money, give the civil servants temporary paycuts and reimburse them when the economy booms. You don't treat the people who work for you like trash - even HR managers in Big Corp knows that basic rule. |
My personal theory on his stubbornness is he wants to crush the unions and make his state a model for tea party ideals so he can run for president using that as the base of his platform in 2016, or maybe even 2012 though that might be a bit soon considering he was just elected governer. If he gives in here, that plan is dead in the water before it really even got a chance to set sail.
