This is what troubles me most about public employee unions. Many taxpayers who cannot afford health care and pensions for themselves are forced to use what little money they have to provide those benefits for others. Also, I thought most public employees were somewhat protected by civil service rules and laws. This seems to be quite a bit different than private sector union employees striking against stock holders.
I guess I have a problem with forcing anyone who cannot afford health care and pensions for themselves to pay for others in the public sector including our politicians.
