Ritter stands up

Gov. Ritter vetoed a bill that would have allowed for locked out workers get unemployment benefits.

Pretty dumb idea if you ask me. Considering that the articled in the Post (linked above) says the state paid $5 million in 1996 to locked out Safeway workers.

A lot of money the state can't pay right now. Not to mention those workers are somewhat willfully unemployeed.
