In a front-page article in today's Dispatch, Gov. John Kasich is quoted as saying, "I'm not anti-union."
In a wide-ranging conversation, Kasich also told the paper that:
Ohio teachers do a great job and deserve a big raise.
Ohio police officers are highly intelligent and he has the utmost respect for them.
He wants to be known as the Green Governor for his tireless efforts in conservation and environmental protection.
He understands that corporate tax breaks are not a cure-all, and do nothing to balance the budget.
He'll do more to promote a regulatory climate which ensures fairness and safety.
Kasich said he chose to do the interview with the Dispatch because of their "reputation for impartiality," and in his final comment, he "guaranteed" that the Cleveland Indians would win the World Series this year.
