Unions are a joke. This would be like a used car salesman listing a 91 Pontiac for 20k, then saying "ok, ok, I'll take 15k. See? I'm saving you money."
Excellent review of current situation. Thanks for your analysis, I am gratified that the two parties recognize thee is a problem and will do what they must. I hope the Mayor can develop a way to have such amiacable relationships with those who who do not agree with his agenda. Could we be on the path to have a problem solving government rather than just constant advocacy?
I am a big fan of organized labor, but the public sector unions are headed for trouble if they think they can maintain their current status without risking an Eyman initiative that will seriously impair their interests.
Duh.
