“We’re not asking for the moon, just something fair and equitable, and they’re moaning and groaning,” Lundeberg said.

What I would like to know is what are the Sailors and Firefighter unions getting now and what are they asking for?  Does anyone do journalism anymore?  Am I supposed to be happy about paying more for goods and services because they got a raise?  I am certainly not getting a raise to pay for the added price increases.  Should I feel supportive because they are not getting paid an honest days work, or should I be mad because what they make is obcene? 

Thoughts?
