Labor RelationsCincinnati Councilwoman Laure Quinlivan managed to work out a budget by asking union thugs to take a week of unpaid vacation sometime during the year. Head union thug replies - fuck you. Lay us off so we can sit on our butts & collect unemployment. Meanwhile, konservatives who backed Kasich's failed union busting efforts & whose own efforts in conjunction with Kasich caused the local budget crisis, laud the thugs' indignance & blame a non-existent streetcar for everything.
Meanwhile, the Windbag says that it's "shameful" for city employees to have city credit cards. He implies posh vacation resorts & mojitos for everybody. The city manager says it's more efficient than forcing employees to screw around with obtaining purchase orders. The Windbag has whipped his minions into a frenzy over the notion of rampant embezzlement that nobody has offered any proof of. As the names of the city employees with cards & their credit limit has been linked to by WCPO, any loon can now target them for whatever fantasy slight they can imagine.
And to top it off, the Windbag wants to take care of this now by Emergency Ordinance which his pals kinda just recently put the kibosh on.
Simply fucking amazing.
