“The founders of the labor movement viewed unions as a vehicle to get workers more of the profits they help create. Government workers, however, don’t generate profits. They merely negotiate for more tax money. When government unions strike, they strike against taxpayers. F.D.R. considered this “unthinkable and intolerable.”

Super! Trump can quote FDR as he closes down the federal employee unions. Democrats were always complaining about Republican threats to "shut down the government". Unions have had that knife at our throats for six decades.

With 90 million people out of work, Trump shouldn't have any trouble replacing the people who don't want to work under the new rules.

Eyup. Reagan sure kicked some butt when the Air Traffic Contollers Union thought it was a good idea to strike.
