Now It's a "Civil Right" To Take Money?

This should be interesting.

Labor unions at the heart of a burning national disagreement over the cost of public employees want to frame the debate as a civil rights issue.

...As part of that strategy, unions are planning rallies across the country April 4 — the anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination.

Umnhhhh...

MLK was justifiably concerned with minorities just GETTING decent jobs, for example in the historically racist trades.

But taking money at the point of a gun, which is what "taxation" is at bottom?

It's a stretch.

April 4th....hmmm...that's a Monday, right? That would make it a "workday", wouldn't it? I wonder how many schools will close that day because the teachers are "sick".
