I imagine this is fake and manufactured by the deep state to get the Unions back behind the demonicrats and stop unions moving toward Trump.

Anyone who is dealt with any government agency of any size knows how inefficient and bloated they are. Go to your local DMV and tell me that you couldn’t get rid of half the people there and still make no difference is customer service. Now imagine that level of Bureaucratic miss management and Incompetency at every large state and federal government agency. It is time to get rid of government unions

FDR provided very sound reasons we should NOT have public sector unions.

First is there aren't 2 sides!!!

Its a self dealing con job.

Why do we allow the word leaked to be applied to made up stuff? It’s so secret only the “leaker” knows about it.

Who cares what the 6% of the population who are union members does or thinks? Soon there will be as many homosexuals as union members.

This explosive 19-page document was prepared in 2017 by Special Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy James Sherk, who was previously a research fellow at the regressive, anti-worker Heritage Foundation.

It is a long time since I have read any union propaganda. I had forgotten how they abuse language and logic.

If you are not Progressive you must be Regressive

If you are not Pro Union you must be Anti-Worker.

I know plenty of union members that are frustrated that unions protect the lazy and incompetent workers in their midst that make their work harder and more dangerous.

Then there are those that lie and blame others when they screw up.

Sometimes unions improve things but in my experience most of the time they cost workers more than they are worth.

“...It has seven bullet points on firing federal employees. The administration is obviously not concerned about making the government more efficient, just how they can more efficiently get rid of career civil servants who have served their country honorably....”
**************************************************
Not talking about “front line” employees who are probably mostly productive but certainly at the various staff and headquarter levels the federal government is loaded to the gills with non-productive employees. If more non-producers were fired some of the remaining slugs would be motivated to get busy.

To that end, there’s no downside to finding ways to make terminating such federal employees easier.

The union supports/encourages this activity.

Considering the source, I wouldn’t believe a word of it. This type of ploy has the same smell the other planted evidence had. Of course I hope it’s true Government workers, and I use the term workers cautiously, need to be brought down a few pegs, they should not average better pay and benefits than the working people who pay for it.

"As the largest union representing leaching off federal employees, AFGE.."

An appropriate edit.

This is possibly the most objective work of reporting that I have ever encountered.

Oh sure, I really mean that.

Public sector (government) employees at the local, state, or federal level should not now, nor should they ever have a right to be union.
