The case Against Public Employee Unions

Michael Barone, as usual, cogently presents the case for reigning in the pubic employee unions here.  It is beyond comprehension how any reasonable person fails to see the threat to our economy and our freedoms posed by these out-of-control, runaway unions.  That these unions were allowed to organize public employees in the first place was an egregious mistake on the part of JFK who did so in the usual manner of democrats trolling for more votes.  At least FDR saw the threat to America of allowing these workers to organize and stated so unequivocally.  As Barone points out there are so many conflicts of interests, so many opportunities for corruption by allowing public employees to unionize, that one has to be either a democrat or a union member in order not to see them.   It is beyond disgraceful to allow this charade to continue. Not only should public employee unions not be allowed to collective bargain under any circumstances, they should not be allowed to organize in the first place.  When do we wake up?
