[QUOTE="sigsilly, post: 1470729, member: 12651"] Public unions are out of hand. They draw higher wages and benefits, especially in retirement, than do union workers in the private sector. So much so as to be ridiculous. (Federal retirement pay is unbelievably high for management so unions wanted more too.) If you think labor vs. management relations are bad in places like the automotive industry, you should see what it is in the USPS or Tinker. Gov't by nature is slow and unresponsive to the individual citizen. Add in the factor of tenured or senior public servants that don't give a damn whether anything gets done because they are too busy gossiping or drinking coffee, and you have a tremendous and non-beneficial burden on the taxpayer. Welcome to the world of gov't employee unions. [/QUOTE]
