To all:
Think what the Grand Old Party(GOP) of Lincoln has turned into. A bunch of greedy rich folks who lust for the money in Ohio's government pension systems. It is a sad that the party of American tradition has lowered its self to such a low level. When will it ever end? When will it ever end? They have lost the 3-branches of government nationally and statewide and they still try to: GOP(Grab Our Pension)!
Lincoln, a man of the people, must be turning in his grave. And, by the way, I was a student at Akron Lincoln Elementary School for 8 years. There was a Lincoln quote at the school that said: "Prepare yourself, for some day your chance will come." I am quite certain that this American hero did not mean for it to be: Prepare yourself for your chance will come to gut the retirement systems of loyal state employees for your own personal gain.

To all:
All of you out there that are in state retirement systems here in Ohio need to synchronize on this. Let your political reps know RIGHT NOW that we will not stand ideally by on this one. The GOP (Grab Our Pension) "good 'ol boys" are at it again!
What a holiday gift to us who gave so much of ourselves to the State of Ohio. How dare them.
My individual opinion,
