        It's not healthcare, it's this crap. Everyone is out for themselves and not the good of America.

        Public sector fleecing of private sector & taxpayers has been going on for a long time. Unionized public employ system is license to steal.

        .actually, I'd prefer his state not further burden its taxpayers with unsustainable obligations they will not be able to afford in time.

        Stop with this tax payer crap. Every single person uses tax payer money or subsidies. He earned his sick time and didn't use it. Good 4 him

        .eventually you run out of other people's money. I don't blame him for taking it; I blame the state for the policy. It's unsustainable.

        @KCarliniKing I can see it now. Executives will keep sick pay and lowly employees will have to give it up. #RichGetRicher

        Not sure how I get that from this article. He didn't use his days and was paid for them. 46 years of no sick leave is a long time.

        Drain the swamp. The fact these clowns are flying around in private jets is appalling.

        At my jobs we always had a rule, use your sick leave within a certain amount of time or lose it

        Sorry your job sucks. His job stated he gets paid for unused sick leave. I guess he could've blown in every Friday instead he was at work.
