NotTheWayTo Legislate

Hoosiers you better get your pens and fingers working contacting your local representatives in the Indiana legislature. Yesterday the Democrats walked out just because they didn't like legislation relating to "collective bargaining" and "right to work". Doesn't that sound like the group at school that would leave taking the ball just because they didn't like the rules that everyone plays under. Well it's the same thing with the democrats. They lost the November elections, the People spoke and now they are sore losers not wanting to take part in the votes that should be taking place.
For years the Unions had it their way providing lots of money to legislators in the form of PAC monies that got them what they wanted, protections, high wages and retirements that could not be sustained. Well the chickens have come to roost. There is no money and those sweetheart deals have bankrupting our local, state and now federal coffers. You don't have to be a Rhodes scholar to read the news stories of states in the red and that 14 Trillion Dollar deficit that hangs over all of us at the federal level.
So get on your phones, e-mails and for those of us that remember, the power of the pen, write your representatives and state senators. Our representative system must be sustained. The democrats in this case need to understand that that an election will take place in a year and a half and that is the place to respond to this situation not walking out and hiding like those state senators in Wisconsin. That is not the Hoosier way.
