Prick Scott to force public employees to pay 5% of salary to retirement.
That is a HUGE paycut. This is about balancing the budget on the backs of people who risk their lives every day for you reading this. This is about balancing the budget on the backs of teachers who teach your kids every day. And who is this Jeremy Ring from Margate (a DEMOCRAT) carrying the water for Rick Scott?

Like I said in other posts, people need to mobilize NOW to stop this! I have to say I'm LMAO at those public sector employees who voted for this PRICK!

1. Jeremy Ring is a multi-millionaire who doesn't know what real work is.
No wonder. He's a Republican on fiscal issues. He is partly responsible for this attack on public employees.

Everyone needs to write their senator and representative as well as Jeremy Ring! Ring needs to be targeted for a primary in 2012. I don't care how rich he is!

2. Why is this such a bad thing? Shouldn't employees contribute to their retirement?
You will be hard pressed to find any other job where the employer contributes 100% of retirement funding.
