So, I see the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) has taken out a full-page color ad in your publication. Life must be swell for all these unions. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger came into office and identified the problem with our state and four propositions were put on the ballot to stop the bleeding. SEIU and the “dedicated state employees” along with every union representing a government entity, came unglued and launched one of the most massive assaults on a political figure I\u2019ve witnessed in my 56 years. The people \u2014 having heard the words of fear from the magic box from the “dedicated state employees” regarding loss of police, fire, teachers and how the populace won\u2019t survive \u2014 voted down these measures. Now the bill has come due. These “dedicated employees” unions are only dedicated to self interest and not to the state. One has to wonder, since they took out a full-color ad in the Beacon, did they do so in how many other publications? Isn\u2019t there an irony here? The same people who have bankrupted the state are wealthy enough to run full-page color ads. Just like they had plenty of money for calling Schwarzenegger a rat every 30 seconds on the magic box. The sad part is how many people don\u2019t read the “PAID FOR BY” at the end and bottom of the ads. These unions are flush with our money. Start shutting services. Balance the budget.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
