The New Fat Cats

The New Fat Cats The Weekly Standard
"John Edwards was right.

There are two Americas, just not his two (the rich and powerful versus everyone else).
The real divide today is, on one side, the 20 million people who work for state and local governments and the additional 3 million who’ve retired with fat pensions.

On the other, the rest of us, roughly 280 million Americans.

In short, there’s a gulf between the bureaucrats and the people"

We tighten our belts so they can buy new, bigger belts.
Are we so timid that we will continue to let the unions destroy our fiscal lives....and out country?
