The point is, cities are broke, this will happen nationwide and then.....no garbage pickup, police walking off the job...THEN WHAT??? Good god..........USE YOUR BRAIN. [/quote] garbage pick-up is not a free service , people do pay monthly fee for the service....some county outsource their police workforce by hiring security guard to patrol their streets which cost taxpayers less money... i say minimum wage is still too much for SOME of the gov employees... most of them think very highly of themselves when it come to serve the people who pay their exorbitant salary and benefits...
