Connecticut's capital faces fiscal meltdown tied to union promises, default deemed likely

Here we go again. State after state is going down that rat hole because they allowed public service employees and teachers to form unions. Not only that but gave them special powers such as making schools and public offices closed shops where all employees were either forced to join or pay dues even if they didn't join. Now, I may be mistaken, but I do believe that "my" state of California led the way into the abyss. Chalk another up to lunacy... (Why do you think we call Jerry "Governor Moonbeam"? (...and other names not fit for polite company)

I bet if I look at their books for about 5 minutes I'd see a lot of money going to liberal politicians who supported unsustainable pension and or taxing the rich to cover up all the hand dipping going on.

No problem - just tax the rich white people more to reduce the deficit.
