Individual liberty anywhere is a threat to the Progressive-Collectivist Cause everywhere.
But for many of us, the real problem with public sector unions is the inescapable direct involvement of the taxpayer in the system that may work against the taxpayers’ interests. It works something like this.(from gastongazette.com)
The government take my money through taxes. It uses my money to pay public sector union-member salaries. The public sector union member gives some of my money which he or she get in wages, to the political party that supports public sector unions. The union-favored politician in turn increases the salaries of the union members in order to receive even more of the union’s money which is really my money. I don’t have a choice in the use of my money taken by the government to give to its union workforce except by virtue of a vote for those politicians who do not support public sector unions. The chances of my vote being successful is diminished because the party I want to vote out of office, is using my money against me by essentially buying union member votes through promises of support and higher wages and benefits.
