Most of them likely don't care as long as they get theirs. You hear a lot of people on their side making statements such as “salaries and benefits got where they did because it's what the market can bear”

In a different setting (such as a baseball player earning a salary) I would be more willing to buy that… however in this case, there is no “market” that will bear what they are being paid. That's all taken out of the equation by the collective bargaining agreements…

Wrong example. Baseball is not a business. It is a game and a legally sanctioned monopoly controlled by our Congress.
