I shouldnt have to go SEARCH for the issues. I pay for this and it should be afforded to me and rest of the group. This was back doored no matter how you look at it. Also the thing that bugs me was that there was no statute of limitation that was placed on this issue, which means this was going to be permanent, which should require a vote of the masses, not a personal conviction by the "courageous union reps:
No, I'm sorry, you don't pay for people to spoon feed you issues. You are supposed to take an active role in furthering your career.

You pay taxes, but do you expect your lawmakers to personally seek out your opinion every time they vote on a bill?

There are many methods to see what's going on. You're just not taking advantage of them.
