text: In case you haven't noticed there have been several thousand forced lay-offs, relocations and retirements in the private sector. We get it, the education folks could care less. 
  And what about that first year UAF engineering student looking for a part time summer job in the private sector, that isn't successful because there are none. But let's tax everything under the sun because we don't want them education folks to suffer one iota. We get it, it's all about greed and an absence of compassion with you folks. The children are nothing but a smokescreen attempt to hide this fact. Alaskans are tired of your old selfish arguments.
