Analysis: Issue 2 Never Stood A Chance
Opponents of Senate Bill 5 outmatched supporters in money, motivation and message.
In retrospect, Issue 2 never stood a chance.
Opponents outmatched supporters in money, motivation and message. It's no surprise they had more votes, too.
On Tuesday, about 60 percent of Ohio voters rejected Issue 2, Gov. John Kasich's plan to severely restrict bargaining rights for Ohio's unionized government workers. And the resounding defeat wasn't delieved with scant turnout during a boring off-year election.
Turnout was 46 percent, the highest for an off-year race since 1991.
The union-backed opponents were too strong, and cared too much. They viewed the fight to end Senate Bill 5 as a back-against-the-wall fight, and they campaigned that way.
Opponents trotted out teachers and firemen and said the law would ruin important government services and hurt midde class voters, and the voters believed them.
Supporters equated issue 2 with job creation and low taxes but voters just didn't believe them.
Observers predicted this before the election. John Green, executive director of the Ray C. Bliss Institute of Applied Politics at the University of Akron, said that a major problem for supporters is that their argument is too nebulous.
"Connecting taxpayers directly to this issue is much more difficult," Green said. "The average voter is not going to immediately understand that connection."
Kasich and his Republican allies had the upper hand at the beginning of the fight, when they were able to force its passage through the state legislature despite the protesters filling the State House. Sente Bill 5 was passed and signed in March without any Democratic support.
Before the ink could dry on the newly signed law, the galvanized opponents mobilized and gathered 1.3 million signatures -- 900,000 which were verified -- to have Senate Bill 5 placed on the ballot.
With an army of volunteers and passionate advocates, they were ready for an election before it was even called.
When the campaigns began in earnest, opponents ratched up the do-or-die rhetoric. Thing is, they believed it too.
"It will be plantation deal where one side has power and the other side has none," said Harriett Applegate, head of the North Shore AFL-CIO. "People will lose jobs, they will lose their rights in the workplace. It will create a one-sided structure that doesn't work. There will be no rights worth hanging their hat on.
"If we lose this battle, we are sitting ducks for extinction, a union in name only," Applegate added.
And the money came flowing in. Reports show that, since July, opponents raised more than $19 million while supporters collected about $7.6 million.
In all, opponents raised more than $30 million. Supporters never revealed all of their contributions.
What happened to supporters? Where did they go wrong?
Paul Allen Beck, a political science professor at Ohio State University, said it's basically a classic case of political over-reaching after Kasich and the GOP's 2010 election wins.
"Most voters weren't giving a mandate to the governor to change the nature of collective bargaining in Ohio," Beck said.
The core fight raised by Issue 2 is not over, despite Kasich saying Tuesday night that he respected the voters' decision and take a step back and reflect on the outcome.
Union members at an election party Tuesday implored each other to prepare for the next fight, maybe in the 2012 election or maybe sooner.
Some even thanked Kasich for Issue 2 for creating such strong solidarity.
Said Stephen Loomis, president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association: "Thank you, John Kasich, for uniting the labor movement like it's never been before,"

Teacher, fireifghers, police in Avon = Fantastic folks. I don't want any of them to not be paid what their worth. Many of them are worth far more than they are paid now. I believe the unions have outlived their usefulness and we should be paying strictly on merit and job performance. I'm actually surprised that only 61% voted "no" on the issue. The other 38%, of which I was one, certainly have a voice and this will be interesting to see the next step.

This issue and the commercials mad me lose the respect I have had for police and fire personnel. The fear tactics the lies and intimidation of people being able to put a sign in their yard without having their property vandalized. Ohio has lost almost as many jobs a Califormia and Michigan, we are also highly taxed - if something is not done then who would want to bring jobs to OHIO. It is a shame more people didn't read up on the issues before drinking the union koolaid.

James , 2 out of the 3 officers laid off from my dept. are making $12K-$15K more in the private sector...and that is their starting pay. Their starting pay is more than what they were making as 11 and 13 year senior officers. Their private sector starting pay is about $40K more than what they started at as officers...funny the BS spouted here by right wingers is repudiated by the facts on the street. Now that my old friends have a taste of thee free flowing private sector money they are never coming back. That's how good it is, do they miss being officers...yes.....but those big paychecks comfort them and both have commented on the LIES spouted by BUILDING A BITTER OHIO

Funny you bring that up James, 2 of the 3 guys laid off by my dept. are making about $15K more in their new private sector jobs.....their starting pay is more than they were making as public employees with 10 and 13 years seniority respectively....and about $40K over start

Opposed (repeal SB5) - 2,145,042 (%61.3)

10:48 am on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
This layoff talk is a crock! People are going to be laid off with or without SB5. You can't push state debt on to the local governments then raise the state budget by 5 billion when there was supposed to be an 8 billion dollar gap and expect the local governments not to lay off...
Fact of the matter is over 90% of public employees already pay 10% to pensions and at least 15 percent or more to health care. This bill was only going to save communities a minimal amount of money and not cover the gaps taken in local government funding.
This bill was about union busting and cutting the funding to anyone who could oppose the far right wing nuts!
43% more than private sector my butt!
They counted my pension twice in that number.. the amount I pay in and the benefit itself.
They assigned an arbitrary value of 10% for "job security"
They did not count social security into private sector benefits.
They counted all jobs into the average private sector from minimum wage to they guy making 500,000.. problem with that is there are far more people making minimum wage then there are the other!
SB5 time of death: 21:17 11/08/11!

if I had told you that more Ohioans in 2011, an off-year election, will vote against Issue 2 than the number of Ohioans who voted for Kasich in 2010, would you believe that? Except that's true. No on Issue 2 got roughly a quarter of a million more votes than John Kasich did in 2010. How can Kasich argue he has any mandate on collective bargaining reform when No on Issue 2 received more votes than he's ever gotten? That's the new problem for those few legislative Republicans who still want to revisit collective bargaining reform. I don't think we've ever seen an issue so definitively tied to a Governor defeated with more votes than that Governor had gotten in their most recent election, either. That may be a feat never repeated again. And yet, there are still "pundits" who say Kasich can recover by 2014… although they will probably now say that such things are less probable than they used to suggest.
12:02 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Well, if you told me how many millions of dollars unions would spend running their intimidation campaign I'd believe it. Kasich offered a plan to address a problem in our state and local government... what has the opposition done other than call people names and point fingers? I don't think SB5 was a perfect piece of legislation but at least it showed that some people aren't afraid to address a problem.
Steve Edquist
12:21 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Same old reply...blah blah blah republican blah blah blah. I'm sick of it...its BOTH sides. The truth is that manufacturing jobs (which for many years) was the backbone of this economy and is leaving Ohio and at least Kasich had an idea of trying to fix the problem. All I've heard from supporters of Issue 2 is how it breaks the unions and oh by the way approve the additional tax levy. I have been in manufacturing for 30 yrs and am forced to take pay and hour cuts because of the economy yet it is not done on the public sector. I have many police and teacher friends to know what they make and how the raises come. And if the money is so great in the private sector why isn't more people leaving to get their fair share? Oh thats right, they just love the poor hours, long shifts and crappy pay? Please don't insult peoples intelligence. Just at least call it what it is. AND if all these people that are against Issue 2 are so smart than submit a proposal to HELP the communities in which you serve instead of just bashing the people that do have a plan whether its right or wrong.
12:25 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Dave--Kasich offered nothing but the same old warmed over republican BS, rplete with scare tactics direted at the same people already overburdened for carrying his cronies on the tax rolls; the repubs ahve been usiing scare tactics all the way back to Goldwater (remember the atom bomb ad?) through Nixon ("law and order") to Reagan (the white polar bear ad) to the minority habitual offender turned killer ad and beyond...it just doesn't work anymore;

1:44 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Chris, really? Cushy is the word you would use? I encourage you to do the math. I was curious so I did. 6% of our almost 12 million people in ohio are public workers. They make 50K on average per year. Do you really think that is cushy? Sure someone who has worked for 30 years will make more but you don't think they deserve to make 70-80K for that dedication? I mean you guys stay it's ok for someone to make 40 million on our backs because they worked hard for it, then why would you change your tune and say someone making 80K doesn't deserve it after putting in 30 years?
Do you know what SB5 would have saved each of the 12 million people in ohio? .95 cents per day. Less than a cup of coffee. Is that really going to save Ohio?
How would you feel if your employer came to you and said, I don't care what you think, I'm reducing your pay by 470 dollars per month so that the CEOs can have a larger bonus. Would you feel good about it? If you do, I challenge you to give 470 dollars a month to the state of ohio to fix it's budget woes.
Tony Marcum
1:51 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Steve, I have a proposal for a solution. How about the 1% take the 10 Trillion dollars in cash that they pirated out of our economy by reducing pay for people like you (which is wrong) and they bite the bullet, invest the 10 trillion dollars, hire the 14 million people that lost their jobs since 2008, make a profit and then 14 million more people will be paying taxes again and getting us out of the whole.
That is the jist of the problem. The State of the Ohio lost the tax revenue of the people that lost their jobs and the property tax of the same people that lost their homes. Turning around and taking a small amount of money from the public workers will NEVER fill that gap. But if business would sacrifice and hire people those people will spend money, pay taxes, buy homes and we would start to get out of this mess.
Instead the 1% don't want to take a risk. They want to keep their money because you know, 10 trillion dollars is just not enough. They have to eat too right? I don't even think they need to pay more taxes, they just need to suck it up and start investing in America.
Tony Marcum
2:13 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Chris, it's a small amount of money for taxpayers. It's a much larger amount for teachers. If teachers bite the bullet, each would take a 470 dollar a month pay cut. If taxpayers bite the bullet, it's .95 cents per day ($28 per month). That's why the huge uproar. That's just the beginning, it's a slippery slope. If all of this were the public workers and unions fault, I'd say, get rid of them, but this isn't their fault.
Tony Marcum
2:19 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
If the majority of people in Ohio make 25K a year (12 dollars per hour) then we need to do way more than look at our public workers. Something else is wrong. Taking it from public workers is nothing more than smoke and mirrors. The true problem is, why are our businesses paying near poverty line rates? Also, what is the average pay of college educated people (because teachers are required to have a degree). Do you really expect a teacher to spend 100K getting a masters degree to teach your children only to make 25K? Why even go to college? Wow, this opens up so many other issues that we probably can't go into. I'm a computer science major and make 110K per year in the private sector. In my mind, 40-50K is not cushy by any means. If they told me in college I'd make 25K in my field, I'd find another field.

Chris, great points. I'm on board with merit based pay. I don't know about the whole showing up drunk for work and not getting fired. I've never heard stories like that and would be interested in reading about them. I suspect that's a small percentage of people that do that and I hate to punish everyone just because someone else is irresponsible. There must be a way to fix the unions so that those fringe examples don't occur. There also has to be a way to introduce merit based pay even with the unions. I've worked in the private sector my whole life and experienced bully tactics by managers and owners. It doesn't feel good to think if I don't bend over I'll lose my job and not be able to find another. Our government needs to start coming up with good solutions. Not the easy stuff like, getting rid of unions when it really won't do any good. They have been saying that for decades and what has changed? Not much, it just keeps getting worse. We need to demand from our politicians to work much harder and start being creative. The first think they should do is not make it a requirement to join the union. Then, if the union truly is obsolete and irrelevant, then they will fade away just like any other obsolete business. But it's not our right or the government's right to tell those people they can't have free speech and the right to assembly.

Tony, if the average public worker makes $50k per year then I am applying today. AND just for your knowledge, the private sectoir is paying on average 25-30% for health care that isn't even close to the coverage you get. Also, I do not get matched on my retirement or payed furlough days and I don't miss work. Answer this...isn't the whole purpose of starting a business to make the most money you can? I do not remember any union OR non-union personel giving any start up money or yaking ANY of the risks that it takes to get a company successful. To answer your question, no i would not be happy BUT do understand that even BEFORE Kasich was appointed to office, there has been a mass exodus of bussinesses here in Ohio. So again...come up with a plan instead of bs facts and figures because we all want to prosper here in Ohio. Maybe if my business is struggling I can put a tax levy on the ballot for YOU to bail me out!
Tony Marcum
3:35 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Steve, Let's clear up one thing, I work in the private sector. The guys in the public sector that do what I do, make 1/2 of what I make. I would never apply to work for the government. Not in a million years. I guess our experiences are much different. So let's talk about mine since you brought up yours.
I pay 30% for my premiums (but again, I make double what they do in the public sector). I pay 0% towards my pension. My company pays it all, public sector pays 10%. I get unlimited sick time, 3 personal days, 4 weeks vacation, and comp time which last year, gave me 7 weeks of vacation time. I make 110K a year. Computer guys that work for the state, they make 40-50K a year.
Starting a business is to make money, but if I start a business and I don't have any employees and I don't have any customers will I succeed? So a humble business man knows where his bread is buttered. His employees and his customers are the reason for his wealthy. Why shouldn't he show a little appreciation when times get rough? You have made a choice to work for what you work for and you are doing nothing but displaying envy and covetousness (both sins). If I worked where you worked, I'd have been long gone a very long time ago. I use to work for a place like that so I worked nights and weekends going to school to get a degree and get out. Oh and generally speaking, we did bail the businesses out to the tune of 800 billion dollars. Did you forget about that?
Tony Marcum
4:02 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Steve...I forgot, I also get 100% matching on the first 3.5% on my 401K and I "might" get social security when I retire. Public workers don't get social security. For me, I have it much better than any public worker. As a side note, if you personally were a good guy and ran a business that treated me with respect, I'd help to bail you out. I'd go out of my way to bring you business and to spend money at your establishment. It's the right thing to do. I pay more for my groceries because the place I shop pays their employees more and gives them health insurance. I could be going to wal-mart but they underpay and treat their employees like dirt. The teachers in my district, are awesome. The number of kids coming out of this high school with straight A's is unbelievable. When I call the sheriff (I'm not in the city) they are here in less than 5 minutes. Thank God I've never had to call the fire department so I don't know how they respond. No way am going to thank these guys with a sharp knife to the back.
Tony Marcum
4:28 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Steve, regarding your statement about my benefits, I'm very grateful for my benefits and actually, they are a bit less than what I had at my last employer. I think it's very wrong that others don't get the same benefits that I do. I just choose to put the blame where it belongs, which isn't on the unions and the public workers. Who outsourced the jobs to China? And who let them without penalty? It really is the corporations that are destroying our country which is based in greed and the love of money. Did you know, that in the 1920's Ford did not outsource any employees and paid them something that was way above what everyone else made and they still made huge profits. All of these companies can afford to bring back the work, they would just have to make less money. something like 20 billion instead of 40 billion (I pulled those numbers out of the air.. I don't know what it actually is). But what they have left after the sacrifice is still worthy of kings and rulers. That's why I can't understand wanting to punish people that make like .0000004% of what the 1% do.I can't wrap my head around that at all. It would be like me expecting my 16 year old to pay the mortgage because he got a 25 cent raise at Taco Bell when I had my $3000 raise frozen this year. Why should he take the heat?
Steve Edquist
4:32 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Tony, let me clear this up. First off, I am a registered Democrat, have a college degree and make $40k a year. If I came across as complaining it is not my intent. BUT I am sick and tired of people turning this into a republican or democratic issue. For years now neither the democrats or republicans have done anything for the people in this country. Do I agree with SB5...not all of it. But the facts are that (and everyone agrees with this) jobs ARE leaving this state (and country). A friend of mine is a councilman in a local city and he told me if hes elected for a second term he gets free health care for the rest of his life. You may agree with this but I do not. If he is in office I don't have a problem with that, but for the rest of his life is taking it to the extreme. Then to here that local city complain about not having enough funds and may have to raise taxes is just not right. Also I am very happy in my position where I work and I am more fortunate than most. And still I have NOT heard any other plan to help everyone (private and public).
Tony Marcum
4:50 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Steve, we are pretty much on the same side. I'm not a registered anything. I think they all suck and should be fired. Talk about merit based pay! I really think we should reduce all of the politicians pay because at the root of it, they are at fault. I think SB5 was smoke and mirrors and that would have done pretty much nothing but make life a little harder on even more people (purposefully removing the label teacher, fireman, policeman) because that's what they are, people. Jobs are leaving the country and the state so let's blame the correct people. Because until we hold them accountable, nothing will change. The public "workers" can't champion change and get our jobs back. It's greed. It really is. I don't have any problem with a business person making millions. The took the risk, the should reap the rewards. My problem is, when is enough enough when you are messing with people's life? Tax breaks don't work. Some companies paid 0% in taxes and still laid people off and made record profits. How can anyone be ok with that? So I think we agree on a basic level. The rest is just a distraction. RE: your friend, no I don't agree with that at all. I guess since he's an elected official I don't really count him as the normal "public worker" like a teacher. He's paid by tax dollars but he's in a different class of employee because he gets to make the decisions. Free health care for life is disgusting. Funny thing is, he's not in a union. None of the politicians are :-).
Tony Marcum
5:01 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
So in terms of a solution on a general level, all the states and the federal government need to make it tougher for businesses to offshore with huge penalties if they do in the form of very large taxes to the point that if someone wants to run their business in a different country, then they can move there. Then we can limit imports into this country by those companies. Why make it easy for them if they are going to offshore all of their work? Next, if all states make it pretty much the same to run a business then companies won't move because it won't be any different any place else. When a business stays in America and invests into businesses and pays decent wages that someone can actually live off of, then they should be rewarded with tax breaks, but only after they have done it. Unions and Corporations and small businesses should not be allowed to donate to politician's campaigns. Only citizen's. Finally we all need to unite somehow so that if a company is unfair to hit's workers, they lose A LOT of revenue because we won't shop there.
This is all idealistic. It's hard to get 5 people to agree and take concerted action and I don't think our government will actually take the big steps that would actually help because they are cracking down on their friends then. The people that line their pockets.

That's the current model, and it doesn't work. If we believe it still does work, then we all should just go watch American Idol and wait for it to rebound, in which case, it's not anyone's fault. Just a bump in the road. I don't think it is, I think it's broken and doesn't work anymore. When I hear you say efficiency I hear, more money. No one can compete with us either way. The only reason China competes is because we borrow money from them, then give it back so they can buy our products that they make. I don't think I can ever be convinced that this is not a greed issue.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean do I go out and make the world a better place every morning? A better place... in terms of do I go out and collect pollution, save kids from abusers, and solve the drug problems? No. Do I get up every morning and work for my employer? Yes. Matter of fact I do, so if that is the case, you are out on the wrong limb. I'm also in IT. We just have two different views which is cool. You are more business friendly and I'm not. I've seen peoples lives destroyed by the people you say that treat them like family. I use to work for a .com back in the 90's and it was a small mom and pop shop with the husband and wife in the office. I ran all of the IT department, which consisted of me and 1 other person. Those people did not treat anyone like their were family . Instead, the week they closed on their 500 thousand dollar home the came to work and had a meeting telling everyone that their job was not in danger (they were mis managed and having problems). The day after that, I was called in the morning and asked to come in early to lock the people that were getting laid off out of the system. I dunno, I don't lie to my family like that for the sake of money. They didn't do it for efficiency and competition they did it because later it was found out that someone was taking money our of the company and spending it on personal stuff. Sounds like you have had good experiences. I have not.

not sure still looking how much did they spend to get a no vote. It seems to me that it was like 10 no vote ads to 1 yes vote ad. And the worse part about it is that with this issue being that important there should have been more than 49% of the people out voting. And this is the reason the politicians do not care about us we do not vote.

I am severely disapointed in how this turned out. I thought that finally government workers might be held up to the same standards as everyone else. If the world were fair government employees would pay a similar percentage of their benefits as everyone else and would have to perform well at work to keep their jobs, get promotions, and get raises. In too many government jobs employees are given automatic raises and promotions based on time employed instead of performance. Since this didn't pass I'm sure more services will either be cut or taxes will be raised in one form or another. This is the fourth year I've been a CPA for a public company and my friend who just got hired on as a school librarian makes more money than I do and pays a whole lot less toward her benefits. But life isn't fair.

Andrea sounds like to me, you need to look for another job. i really doubt if you are a CPA for a public company with 4 years exp. and you make less than a just hired school librarian. I think you might be stretching the truth a little.

Okay, look. The "rich" already pay a significant portion in taxes. As a matter of fact, they are already carrying the country on their backs. When the bottom 51% of wage earners in this country do not pay any tax at all, and may in fact get a tax refund, we have a problem. http://theblogprof.blogspot.com/2011/07/brian-williams-to-sen-mitch-mcconnell-r.html Please actually look at the charts at the link, and tell me if that seems "fair."
The population in northeast Ohio is undeniably shrinking. Did you ever wonder why that was? Is it a loss of opportunities, a loss of jobs? Well, who provides jobs. Yes, the rich. Teachers, firefighters and police are important to a community, but they don't provide jobs. And once job creators leave, our tax base goes down, and things become harder and harder for those left behind.
My family is a hard-working middle class family, just like all those ones that Issue 2 was supposed to help, only we're not union, so nobody cares about the struggles we are facing. As soon as my kids are out of school, we'll be looking for the state that offers us the best opportunities to grow and prosper financially. That probably won't be Ohio.
Tony Marcum
2:44 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Barb, I see your point. But I guess it's a matter of which side of the street you are standing when you look at the road. The 1% do pay large dollar amounts in taxes. The poor do not, which wouldn't help us if they did. I think the poor should pay, just a small amount. They need to have skin in the game too.
The two ways of looking at this is this. If I profit 2 million dollars running a business and I decide for whatever reason that the profit is not enough I can fire 2 people making 40K and the next year (assuming the same profits) I'd make 2,080,000. Now I'm happy right? 2 people aren't. Should those 2 people then complain that they pay too much in taxes so let's reduce the pay of their kids teacher without ever looking at the guy that fired him and is vacationing in europe?
The other side of the road says, I made 2 million dollars this year but I'm a true patriot and I appreciate what the american people have done for me by buying my products, working hard for me and making me wealthy. So, I hire 2 more people to help out the economy and pay them 40K each. The following year I make 1,920,000 and I made two people happy and I'm still living like a king!
Now, the state gets more sales tax and income tax from the two people I hired. Those two people start buying other products which cause other businesses to benefit. The economy starts to rebound and me, as part of the 1%, didn't pay a single penny more in taxes.
Tony Marcum
3:25 pm on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
Agreed. I don't think we should just raise taxes on the rich and call it a day. It's a huge complex mess. I guess if it were easy to solve, it would be solved.

In every jurisdiction the situations are unique and can be handled in the fashion necessary to balance the books in that jurisdiction. They certianly could have pared the bill to the necessary dollar saving items and dealt specifically with problems like Tenure in teaching or merit pay for teachers.
8% pension minimum with a maximum of 12% still leaving room to negotiate on the contribution rate. Healthcare 13% minimum with a maximum of 22% leaving room to negotiate the % of contribution within the range. For safety forces make the absolute forced retire age 57 for all safety force members no mattter their position statewide. Remove Tenure for the teaching profession, that does not occur for other public employees so get rid of it, it does give senior teachers far too much control. Also make teachers retire at 62 no matter what. Good , bad , or indifferent...time to go!!
Make striking illegal...FINE with me!! But KEEP BINDING ARBITRATION within the confines of the above ideas. Allow police and fire supervisors to remain in bargaining units. The decert petition should be 51% for a decert vote to get rid of the union. Allow overtime for safety forces to remain as the current contracts are unique to each jurisdiction, FLSA rules for safety forces are foolish.

It's unfortunate that people have developed such negative views of public unions solely based on what they read somewhere (probably some far right wing publication). The fact of the matter is that SB5 was Kasich's attempt to blame public unions for the state's debt and shift the debt onto 6% of the population of Ohio. Why else make draconian cuts to cities and school districts. If you read SB5, and most people did not, it was 304 pages long. Two and a half (2 1/2) pages dealt directly with pension contribution and health care contribution. The rest tried to deal a death blow by installing ridiculous measures that had nothing to do with saving money. It was built to destroy public unions. Do you think that public unions donated so heavily against Kasich in last election influenced this at all? The bill was flawed at best. There are some very nervous lemmings in Columbus worrying about their own elections next year.

So since you all say sb5 is not union busting, tell me how what a union head makes justifies cutting the salary of a teacher?
So you are upset about someone making 250K but perfectly fine with a 5 million bonus on top of a 1 million per year salary of a bank exec who helped cause the main crash of our economy and got a bail out and an even larger bonus?
Really? Dude you really need to look at this with an open mind. Until the American people put the blame where it really should be nothing will change. The states are broke because of less tax revenue due to people laid off and homes lost which was due to the banking industry..... Not the unions and teachers. Is that a really hard concept to understand?

SB5 has everything to do with public union busting, hence the 300+ pages that dealt DIRECTLY with unions AND NOT with pension contributions or healthcare. Need further proof? How about the immediate reaction by the GOP to start trying to make Ohio a "right to work" state. Now there's a recipe for lower wages.
Adam, what do you know about union dues? You say they're out of control. In which way? Maybe you should ask the 1.3 million people who signed the petiution for the Issue 2 referendum if they're out of control. The only thing out of control about them is Kasich couldn't ram through a flawed piece of legislation down the throats of Ohio in order to help his Republican friends. Now his friends are running for cover.
I suspect they will bring back parts of SB5 in smaller bills, as maybe they should. But make no mistake, YOUR Governor balanced the budget on the backs of all taxpayers in the State of Ohio by making horrendous cuts to cities and schools....then tried to blame public unions for the problem. Look forward to more levies from the cities and schools to make up the tens of millions of dollars stripped from their budgets.....and Kasich trying to blame public unions again.
Worst Governor in history. He tried to make some landmark legislation in his run for national office and failed. Don't think he cared about you, GOP or DEM, either way. One term Johnny will be his legacy.

Duane, I'm with you and we sound like we are in agreement. I'm not well read on the "right to work" state but that doesn't really seem bad to me? Do I understand it correctly that its' just the law that says you cannot be forced to be in a union or you can join if you want? That sounds more like a free society. However, I have to admit since I haven't read up on it much I don't understand the full details and consequences. Do you care to expand?
Tony Marcum
12:05 pm on Saturday, November 12, 2011
I think I might be in agreement with Right to work. It gives the power to the people. It could actually make the unions work harder because if they are not doing what they need to do then they will fade away like a business that doesn't service it's customers properly. However, if the people find that they provide a valuable service for the dues they pay, then the unions will become stronger. In my mind, no one should be forced to be in a union nor should they be prohibited either. Employers would be encouraged to provide good wages else they would find themselves working against a union.
Duane Gibson
7:56 am on Monday, November 14, 2011
Tony, right to work does not give the power to the people. It takes the people's power away and gives it to the employer. Just imagine the chaos when employers have no motivation to offer equitable pay and benefits, and can terminate without reason. What you have is lower wages and a court system bogged down in litigation.
Unions have their place. They have helped in the fight to institute fair wages etc. Those unions that do little than protect the bad workers, and there are some, are facing their own judgement days. However, I feel that those are few and far between. I think if you asked union members if they are satisfied with what they get from their dues you would find the vast majority would give the thumbs up.

However, YTMND can be classified as more original, since they take those images they find and mold them into quite humerous "fads" and other jokes. Some even create entirely new images from scratch, such as "Color ME YTMND." I got bored with the current daily media on Ebaumsworld, so I went to YTMND to make me laugh.

View all authorsBritain's Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks
Rabbi Jonathan Sacks has been Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth since September 1991, the sixth incumbent since the role was formalized in 1845. Prior to taking up his current post, Rabbi Sacks was Principal of Jews' College, as well as rabbi of the Golders Green and Marble Arch synagogues. Educated at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he obtained first class honours in Philosophy, Jonathan Sacks pursued postgraduate studies at New College, Oxford, and King's College London, gaining his PH. D in 1981 and rabbinic ordination from Jews' College and Yeshiva Etz Chaim. The Chief Rabbi has been a visiting professor at several universities in Britain, the United States and Israel, and is currently Visiting Professor of Theology at Kings' College London. He holds 14 honorary degrees, including a Doctor of Divinity conferred to mark his first ten years in office, by the Archbishop of Canterbury. At the time of his installation, the Chief Rabbi launched a 'Decade of Jewish Renewal'. This led to a series of innovative communal projects including Jewish Continuity, a national foundation for Jewish educational programmes and outreach; the Association of Jewish Business Ethics; the Chief Rabbinate Awards for Excellence; the Chief Rabbinate Bursaries, and Community Development, a national scheme to enhance Jewish community life. The Chief Rabbi began his second decade of office with a call to 'Jewish Responsibility' and a renewed commitment to the ethical dimension of Judaism. The Chief Rabbi has received a number of prizes, including the Jerusalem Prize 1995 for his contribution to diaspora Jewish life and The Ladislaus Laszt Ecumenical and Social Concern Award from Ben Gurion University in Israel in 2011. He was knighted by Her Majesty The Queen in 2005 and made a Life Peer, taking his seat in the House of Lords on 27th October 2009, where he sits on the cross benches as Baron Sacks of Aldgate in the City of London. The Chief Rabbi is a frequent contributor to radio, television and the national press. He regularly delivers BBC RADIO 4's Thought for the Day, writes a monthly Credo column for The Times as well as other comment pieces and broadcasts an annual Rosh Hashanah message on BBC. In 1990 he was invited by the BBC Board of Governors to deliver the annual Reith Lectures which were then published as The Persistence of Faith. He has written 24 books, his most recent being The Great Partnership: God, Science and the Search for Meaning which was published in July 2011. A number of his books have won literary awards, including the Grawemeyer Prize for Religion in 2004 for The Dignity of Difference, and a National Jewish Book Award in 2000 for A Letter in the Scroll. Covenant & Conversation: Genesis also won the National Jewish Book Award in 2009. Born in 1948 in London, he has been married to Elaine since 1970. They have three children, Joshua, Dina and Gila and five grandchildren.

Raw power. Those two words ,to me, best describe Slayer's vicious ''attack of sound'' on their classic EP ''Haunting The Chapel''Now that Jeff Hanneman has passed away, the future of Slayer seems so unclear. So, today, I listened to some of Jeff's earlier guitar mastery as I drank a Heineken in his honour! R.I.P. Jeff! \m/ --Whitewizard.
05.04.13 1:52am — whitewizard
Another look at Slayer's early days seems to reveal a darker, more ''sinister'' past life the band led at that time. Slayer, at that time seemed seething with brutal aggression, a theme they'd mould and re-shape with each album! --Whitewizard.

I would also listen for the exhaust valve at key on. Ive seen where the valve is stuck and not moving, causing something very similar to your issue but around 6k. It should cycle full open, then return to closed position. Generally this will throw a code though, are you seeing a check engine light?

The bike hits 8500 revs and refuses to rev higher. It does sound like a bike hitting the rev limiter.
I ran the bike with the tank propped up slightly to ensure there was no kink in the fuel hose. It has a full system so there is no exhaust valve and it has maps to match. The map sensor is there. The tilt sensor is all good. The clutch switch works as it must be used to fire the bike up. Any other ideas please? |

Check spark plugs? My ex girlfriends car got to much oil put into it from a dealer one time and after refused to rev past 3.5k since it was dumping oil into the cyclinders, then fucked her spark plugs of course. I am guessing it was the ECU keeping it from going any higher, but really not to sure. Just throwing a suggestion out there.

Thanks. If you read my first post you will see that I have eliminated several possible causes and many helpful things people are now suggesting are already covered off. I do appreciate the assistance people are trying to provide but could you read the initial post to get the full picture and then share any new ideas. It's a knarly problem for sure.

Sorry. So you say you see the intake flap opening. Make sure it's still open at 8,000. Also when you had the tank off did you check to make sure the throttle bodies were opening fully at full throttle?

Thanks for this check. I'll have a look tomorrow as it's a little late for an open pipe at 8K. It may cause a few heart issues for me neighbours.

TPS reset ?
Wasn't there some kind of launch control system recently implemented in TuneBoy, which would explain the consistent revving ?

As per a suggestion by AngryBeth Shortbread, I have this morning been playing with an Engine-driven system that attempts to match one's features to the most appropriate star of stage or cinematograph. I have to say that I am not entirely convinced by the results; repeated use with various pictures resulted in the following being judged most similar and appearing most often, the more common on the left:
Christina Ricci | Rani Mukherjee | Christy Turlington |
I must say that one thing that I have never been told in Second Life is that I look like Christina Ricci, and I think it unlikely that I ever will. Still. Diverting.
I submitted a daguerreotype of myself to the same process - the results varied wildly: from a bollywood actor, to the low vaudevillian Tom Green, to Tim Roth/Ewan McGregor/George Clooney, to the very surprising beardless-youth of Prince Harry!
By the by - I enjoyed my brief visit to your civil little hamlet, though I managed to get myself trapped in your ironclad submersible.
