Why the unions and the government don't care about the public

The public worker unions and the government don't have any reason to care about us and that's the problem.

We retire using the following:

• Our savings
• Our investments (the stock market and our 401ks)
• Our house values
• The interest on our savings

Public worker unions and the government retire on their pension payed by us....on our backs!

They don't need any of the things above because they just drain us to keep paying their pensions!!
It's a major problem and it has to stop and stop right now.  The unions are in bed with the democrats and they influence elections and our tax burden to keep their cozy little future secured.  Unions in the private sector are OK (as long as they're not govt subsidised) and in some cases needed but the govt. unions are a problem that has to end.

The government has destroyed our housing values by their abuses in Fannie and Freddie,  They have eliminated our saving by allowing the Fed to keep interest rates so low.  Obama vilifies the stock market and wall street.  And now the fed is devaluing any of the money we may have been lucky enough to save.  All of the things we in the private sector need to have any hope of retiring and they're destroying them.

They don't care because they have pensions and don't need the same things we do.  That's crazy and puts us in the position of having to police our govt. and also the public unions.   

What does Obama want us to do, just keep on working till the day we die so we can keep him and his union buddies happy in their nice safe retirement?  There's only about 13% of the work force in the unions and Obama says that stimulus contracts can only go to union workers.  That's all of our money Obama and we want Americans to go to work ... all Americans ... not just the ones you like !!   At every turn he divides us into union and non union.  He needs to focus on Americans period. 

We need the union workers on the same page that we're all on so that all Americans can get this government focused on working for us .... all of us ... not just the unions.
