Congress Secretly Working on Way for States to Go Bankrupt
Don, that is not a minority view at all. Any law professor will tell you that. In fact I have never heard anyone even refute that fact.— January 21, 2011 8:45 a.m.
Wall Street Traders Bring Home Far More Than Brain Surgeons
I'll give you the last word as I will not respond anymore to your taunts and invective, and I will give this one to you as I suspect that you really need a victory at this time in your life, no matter how small. ======================== LOL, OK Jeff, whatever you say! I have to laugh at your "taunts and invective" comment because you have a major meltdown everytime I call you on some of your more...errr....specious claims.— January 20, 2011 10:02 p.m.
Congress Secretly Working on Way for States to Go Bankrupt
I amy be wrong on this, but doesn't AFSCME represent mainly federal employees? Do they represent many of the state and local muni's?? I thought SEIU represented most of the state and local employees (along side the local muni unions like local POA's)???? The feds have high employee salary costs-but their pension system was changed many years ago and is not in danger of BK.— January 20, 2011 9:57 p.m.
Los Angeles to Fast-Track Downtown Stadium
Someone-well many-have some big pipe dreams. There will not be a new stadium anywhere in So Cal in the next 5 years, minimum, more like 20 IMO.— January 20, 2011 9:51 p.m.
Congress Secretly Working on Way for States to Go Bankrupt
States do not need Congress to give them the right to go BK. States are sovereign entities under the 11th Amendment; they are their own bosses. They are immune form lawsuit in both federal and state court per the 11th. They can simply repudiate and refute payment on any liability or fiscal debt. Now, we know that won't happen, but technically they have that right and ability.— January 20, 2011 9:50 p.m.
Vallejo's Bankruptcy Exit Plan Would Squeeze Creditors
Muni/state Pensions will certainly be cut once the issue is properly put before a BK court. Vallejo has a bunch of idiots running that muni and did not put the pensions before the court. They filed BK because of the salary and pensions, then do NOT raise the idea of a pension cut before the court-obviously because the majority of the clowncil were still in the pocket of the cops and FF's. But the sad part is they filed BK then WASTED the opportunity to get the full value out of it. I think they left at least 50% of the BK value on the table by not including the pensions. Not to worry-a tsunami of muni BK's are in the pipeline and once a major muni files there will be a wave-and the pension issue will go before a BK court. Once they do pensions will get haircuts and BK law will be set, and they will apply that BK law in every BK court in America.— January 20, 2011 9:46 p.m.
Qualcomm Named One of Fortune's 100 Best Employers
Robert Reich put out an op-ed pice last week saying public unions and their compensation were not a problem. Ridiculous statement. I'm sorry, after reading that bedtime story op-ed piece I cannot take anything he says seriously.— January 20, 2011 9:40 p.m.
Qualcomm Named One of Fortune's 100 Best Employers
Ponze brings the truth-the H-1B visa program is a scam. You will never be able to tell me we need to IMPORT employees from other nations in the middle of a DEPRESSION because we cannot fill those jobs. BULL**** It is corporate America skimping on expenses at the expense of the nation and it's citizens. We are a banana republic, with the rule of law for sale to the highest (corporate/special interest) bidder.— January 20, 2011 7:12 p.m.
What do you deny yourself?
Good move-too much brain damage with BF/GF issues. My pups sleep all over the house-and always take up the bed-especially my pit bull, she will ALWAYS sneak on to the middle of the counch (where I was stretched out) whenever I get up to do something-she is a sneak!— January 20, 2011 7:12 p.m.
