Top 10 Labor Union Outrages

With labor unions seeing a decline in membership, their agenda is becoming ever more desperate.  Public-employee unions, with their lavish taxpayer-funded pensions, are driving governments to insolvency. 

No wonder approval ratings for unions are at an all-time low. 

Here are the Top 10 Labor Union Outrages.

I can only speak specifically for Maryland employees. The facts are that we don't have binding arbitration and we can't strike therefore the only benefits we get are what the State gives us. The unions can ask all they want. If they don't get what they want there is nothing they can do about it. Don't blame the unions and workers for what the State willingly gave them.


Remember also that not only do I pay into my retirement package, and my medical benefits every paycheck but I also pay quite a bit of both State and Federal taxes including Social Security and Medicare. I don't ask for anymore more than the Governer and the Legislature has promised me.

and how has the unions helped all the people that worked for all the union companies that arent here anymore. The companies pulled up stakes and opened companies in states without unions to start again.

Don't forget these are public unions, not private sector unions. Big difference.
