Why is that?

The Davis Bacon Act

There are also the state/local government employees who are sucking

the fiscal life out of our cities.

They get to "negotiate" from both sides of the bargaining table so

their deals are budget busters.

And once again, you display your lack of knowledge.

Jobs covered under Davis Bacon are, for the most part, *not* federal

jobs. They are construction worker jobs for workers employed by private

contactors.

It's astonishing to me that so many of your righties here are so damned

opposed to hard-working men and women earning incomes that just reach

the bottom of the rung of the middle class. Yes, of course there are

exceptions, but the majority of these workers aren't big earners.

And, of course, you never bitch about the huge salaries the corporate

suits make. *That's* okay, because pushing paper or keyboard keys is

white man's work, eh?

Does Dave Bacon threaten to blow peoples brains out if thy dont' sign contracts in two minutes?
