I've already stated it. Just because you don't agree with it doesn't make it "emotional." It could be stated that throwing your profession and the rest of your colleagues under the bus (by advocating that our current bankruptcy/emergency pay is appropriate compensation for what we do), just because you are afraid a big pay increase has the potential to get you furloughed... is emotional. Fear is an emotion.

We all provide opinions here... myself included. Most of us try to base our opinions on facts. Sometimes different individuals will see certain facts as being more important and relevant than other facts. Try reading my posts again. If you still see only emotion... well, I just can't help you.
