Oh, so I can quit the Army tomorrow if I don't want to work here anymore? No? Why not? Because I signed a contract? They signed contracts. What are the terms of termination of their agreement?
I'm not saying they shouldn't be paid for their services. I'm saying they should have to live in the hell they create. Kinda like the movie "The Super".
What are the terms of an employment contract in San Bernadino, CA? Do you know? Do you know if these employees gave proper notice (2 weeks or 30 days are standard)? Do you have any knowledge or evidence that any of those city employees have committed a crime (fraud), and have been convicted of such?
Yet you want the California legislature or the US Congress to pass a law requiring city employees to be forcibly housed, kept in a city's employ doing a job they don't want to do (and may have done poorly), and be paid from a city's budget, against the will of the city and the employees.
How many parts of the US and California Constitutions are you willing to violate in pursuit of...whatever it is you want here? What extremes are you willing to go to to force a city employee to remain in the employ of the city- against his will, or forcibly return a city employee who moves out of the state?
That's slavery.
