Unions Slam Mayor

The police and firefighters resounding show their lack of respect for taxpayers. They think themselves indispensable and owed a great salary by the citizens. If we all are a family, we all have to share the sacrifice. (PS. This is about the City of Miami.)
City consultants…proposed cost saving measures including reduced salaries for every employee making more than $39,000, topping out with 12 percent cuts for everyone hauling in more than $120,000 a year. They suggested upping the retirement age, and adding larger deductables to health care plans.
Then the union bosses came to the podium to share their thoughts on the measures. The messages were not measured.
