Boy, some union must have screwed you GOOD, because you are a one note whiner!
Nope, I am happily in a Right to Work state and we don't have much unionization and no public unions at all. Somehow our teachers and other government workers seem to do just fine, our state budget is balanced and our unemployment rate is far below that of most unionized states. If states like Michigan followed that example they'd be doing MUCH better. McCotter could never be counted on to endorse such solutions because he is in the back pocket of unions.
