Ray Merrick a Kansas legislator and a “Legislator of the Year” according to the American Legislative Exchange Council ( ALEC). He was addressing the disaster that they call the Kansas budget. His answer was to cut some more. He stated that “Government employees produce nothing.” That means the public employee's in Kansas can expect to bare the brunt of the next round of cuts. I hope Merrick is not a product of the public school system, because it's obvious he's an idiot. He doesn't seem to understand that he is a Government employee. If he wants to help out Kansas he should resign his job and go into chicken farming, of course, that may be a stretch, because the chickens might out -smart him on a regular basis.
I was at the Minnesota State Capitol a few years ago after the Republicans had taken control of the capitol. I was in a meeting with some legislators when a women walked in and tried to take control. She stated that public employee jobs weren't real jobs and seen no use for them. It just so happened that there were several public employee's in the group, one was a prison guard who spoke up and said if his job wasn't real then he wanted to know who the people were that were threatening him everyday. This women got up and left the meeting without answering any questions. It came to light later that she thought she was in a meeting with her supporters. The point is these people care nothing about people that can't push there careers forward, or offer them some incentive. If this country is not careful were going to go back to bread lines and huge unemployment, because the Republican's have every intention of gutting all safety net programs.
