Collective bargaining is more of a detriment to employees than it is a plus. For instance, if the "collective" decides to adopt a contract or employee benefit that is bad for an individual union member's situation, the individual is stuck with it anyway. It takes away individual liberty. There's no longer a need for unions. Get rid of them.The Second Chance Sheepdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07341477610473382509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26975600.post-69734718808633357992011-03-06T14:10:37.493-08:002011-03-06T14:10:37.493-08:00I do not think that the Governor would ever propos...I do not think that the Governor would ever propose cutting state workers' pay by 10%. <br /><br />Stating that is pure rhetoric designed to cause fear. <br /><br />Union efforts have brought about improvements.

The worker can quit, but then has no income, and in leaving the state leaves family, home, etc. Workers are disadvantaged in dealing with employers, government or otherwise. The only way to fight that kind of abuse is through a union. It is because of these kind of abuses that unions were legalized.
