Unions: gouging taxpayers and consumers for years while making union bosses rich.
Here is the cycle for public employee unions.
Charge more on dues than needed to run operations.
Use the extra to bribe the politicians who negotiate your contract and vote for it.
The politicians provide more bennies and pay
The union raises dues accordingly and increases the bribes.
pay and bennies go up and more union dies and so on and so forth
IF we must have public employee unions, they should be banned from contributing to politicians who vote on or negotiate their contracts.
