They could save some of those jobs if they would roll back pay and benefits that were the result of the fraudulent run-up in tax revenues due to the RE bubble. But they don't seem to do that because those making the decisions are protecting themselves.

All just nibbling around the edges.

I didn't think you had a clue. I know a lot of people losing their jobs.

People like McMannis will not be happy until there is no gov't left. That's the goal. Anything less than that simply causes more whining.
