"(As you probably know, about 28,000 members of the state's two largest employee unions are on strike. The unions say that they are losing health care benefits, and the wage and salary increases that the state has offered won't keep up with inflation. Gov. Ventura says that what the unions want would cost taxpayers too much.) In general, are your sympathies more with the state's position, or more with the unions' position, or don't you have any particular feelings about it?"
