My prediction - they will live to regret their temper tantrum. Marching in the streets to bitch about having to pay a percentage of their healthcare/retirement will earn them no sympathy, especially when that % is much lower than in the private sector. Add in the sick outs and the school closings - what a great way to endear themselves to parents and voters.
