2) Wenke [by Anonymous Citizen on July 17, 2007] Wenke, you are a dumba$$!!! I'll happily give up my 2% pittance when you give up the 38% raise you got under Engler. Engler should be in jail with guys like those from Enron. And Wenke should too if he tries to take the very little that State workers have. Reply
3) Hire Ilegal Aliens [by Anonymous Citizen on April 9, 2007] Why don't we hire illegal aliens to run the State, and that includes the House and Senate. This would eliminate all benefits, lower pay to a really tolerable level, and provide us with a more fair and impartial legilature.
State Employee's have stepped up and taken their fair share of hits already. We have been working in an understaffed, underfunded, and way underappreciated environment ever since Engler sailed glibly off into the sunset on a raft made up of the States Rainy Day Fund. Get Real. Reply
