I know FDR said something to that effect. Not sure about Kennedy.

JFK did a dictatorial executive order that unionized federal employees. JFK was a democrat and all are communists .FDR was a communist in the 1930’s we all know that .The media says JFK was a conservative . The media lies. All democrats are communists period. The media too are communists every one of them

Executive Order 10988 is a United States presidential executive order issued by President John F. Kennedy on January 17, 1962 that recognized the right of federal employees to collective bargaining. This executive order was a breakthrough for public sector workers, who were not protected under the 1935 Wagner Act.

Funny that you say the opposite of the truth. Guess you are parroting the media deification of their idol. No democrat JFK is just another commie.

“Didn’t JFK say that public sector unions were incompatible with government ?”
==
I think you have in mind there is actually FDR,not JFK - oddly enough.
http://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2011/02/18/the-first-blow-against-public-employees/fdr-warned-us-about-public-sector-unions
“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.”
