Labor unions: the cause of budget deficit
Labor Unions, the only purpose they exist, is to ask for MORE money and LESS work.
Nowadays, modern government has every kind of laws to protect benefit of employees. No reason Labor Unions should exist.
In government jobs, Labor Unions negotiate the salary, overtime pay, retirement benefit and even work load and condition to fire an incompetent works. Do you know how difficult to correct a lazy union worker? Have you ever faced a bad attitude union workers that work for government? We have right to request them to improve! As a taxpayer supported government, we want government the one to defines salary range and benefit, no negotiation. Taxpayers just can not allow any abuse on our tax money.
Why hire Union workers? Private companies that hire non-union workers can perform better jobs.
Just about 1 month ago, Union workers of BART request salary raise without considering BART’s deficit. How would you think? In the non-union company, the employees ask employer to reduce salary so everyone can still keep a job. Why union workers behave differently? Because they own an ridiculous favorable to them working contract! We need to stop this.
