So I said government workers in Unions account for about 30 something percent of all government workers, but only a little more than 4% of all workers in the US. Remember, union members in the private sector account for around 7%. All union workers is a little more than 11%.
So take a look at the number of workers in government and it's around 16%. A third of that would be around 5%. I said a little more than 4%.
Very, very close and you are laughing because what I said was "stupid" and you "don't do math that way"? So I said "prove it" and you said you couldn't because you were "laughing too hard". I'm laughing too. At your ignorant ass, you fool. I told you, you are a fool. And you proved it, once again. Thanks. I too, needed a good laugh. I'm just glad it was at your expense.
And what I said goes. You can't blame the current economic mess on a measly 4% of all workers who make less than a hundred thousand each.
