If you need to balance a budget you need to do it fairly. Corporate tax cuts to stimulate the economy are the trickle down effects little brother. The savings they get from these bills rarely go into the workers pocket, much like how the tax savings to rich in the trickle down only really serve to make the rich richer, rather than making them spend more money.
Well for what it's worth the unions say they have no problem with the pension and pay cuts, they just want to reserve their right to stick it to the taxpayer later on when they think they can get away with it again.

As I've said, i'm not a fan of unions but I don't begrudge their existence in the private sector. PUBLIC sector unions on the other hand... Just who are these people organizing against?
