What's usual, other than their usual mantra of Damn Unions, conveniently ignoring the fact every union contract was also signed by management that MUST be held equally responsible, is that conservatives have nothing to offer.

Default on teacher pensions.
Eliminate garbage collection, street cleaning, rodent control, salting, shoveling and snow plowing
Streets are unlit
No more water and sewer systems,
And More.
Wont that happen if they just go about business as usual? Why do you always attack other peoples plan and never put on out of your own other then taking the wealth of others that will be wasted.
