Gov. Kasich Signs Collective Bargaining Bill (Ohio SB5)
Source: NBC 4i Columbus

COLUMBUS, Ohio --
Ohio Governor John Kasich has signed Senate Bill 5 into law, which would deal a significant blow to public workers and the unions that represent them.

4. Good. The working class is SO over.
From now on we're a nation of Kardashians and Kochs.

6. I volunteered to collect signatures for the referendum in my neighborhood
This Stuff has got to stop. We will get this repealed!

I also notice that our "Democratic" president has been very silent on this matter. Well..... I worked very hard for his first and I hope his last election. I want a real Democrat in my White House!
