I fully agree!

I started a longer post this morning about my personal interactions with AFGE, but wanted to percolate a bit on that before discussing on here. I'm still thinking it through.

I believe that unions have become obsolete and now are only unnecessary parasites in our society and economy. And even more so in government, most especially education.

I say, “If you don’t like the way business is run where you work, quit and get a job where you believe you will be paid better or whatever. And if you don’t think you are paid enough in your government job, go get a job in the real economy along with a big bite of a reality sandwich.”

I, myself, have chosen to run my own business.

It used to be that public service was honorable though it paid less than careers in the rest of the economy. Now public service jobs have become the brass ring of careers. Only lately has socialism, or rather government careers, become risky as the pensions are unsupported. That’s the problem with socialism, it’s great at first, but eventually you run out of other peoples money.
