Now the same republicans are saying otherwise , that the contract with the WORKERS are of no value and standing...
And if you listen to hate radio ( Limbaugh, Schnit, ...) it is even worse, making look Fox News are " fair and balanced " ...

the 2 situations are quite different...
the bonuses were for work already performed... you agree to pay programmer $10k and the programmer performs that work, you owe him $10k, the fact that the company is going out of business or that government had to bail them out is irrelevant... work was done, $$ is owed... no? (replace $10k with $10M and programmer with ceo
)
I'm not very familiar with the teacher issue, but it is my understanding that they may get pay cuts in the future? or they will no longer have union representation? either way, that's in the future.. it's not like they are getting fucked on pay for the work that was already done....
huge difference in my opinion...
