Public sector unions keep the government stable. Imagine if people that work in the public sector were, in the apparent imagination of these anti union groups, always maximizing the amount of money they could get in the short term. Modern government provides a lot of services people don’t think about and take for granted.

High turnover means less long term experience and less of an idea of the big picture of how things work together, which means you need simpler structures. Simpler structures mean less services. I guess, these anti union groups do know what they’re doing. It’s important that we know what they’re doing too.

What a fantastic insult (I didn’t mean that as sarcasm, I think it’s hilarious).

Your guess is incorrect. When people lose a loved one, they are grieving and will choose to put up a flag if they want. It’s not mandatory, it’s not an award, and not given by the Pentagon.

It’s a flag families put up when someone in the military, in their family, dies while deployed. A flag with a blue star means they are deployed, but alive.

The ads work pretty well. That’s the point right? The ads?

My hobby is collecting hobbies. Under my desk at home is a pile of various “projects” most of which I cannot seem to finish.
