Blame unions for this garbage.
My union kicks ass, and always has my back. Blanket statements are useless my dude.
That said, POLICE unions are a bit of a special case. They seem to be… Parasitic to society.
All Unions in the US are parasitic.
Go back to reddit.
“Blame” unions for weekends and sick time.
Unions have long outlived their usefulness in the US. In other parts of the world, unions are still very important and seem to be able to operate without turning into pure corrupt bullshit. In the US? Not so much. With money comes corruption and we can’t seem to get things right here. Either we have corporate bullshit or union bullshit and neither of them are good for workers or the country as a whole.
Weird, then, that unions keep getting formed. And giving people new benefits they didn’t have before.
Maybe step away from your computer for a little bit. Unions in the US have been in a massive decline for decades now.
And yet new unions keep getting formed.
Facts show otherwise, but keep believing in that.
A union of guys who are paid to break up protests and strikes doesn’t really count as a union, especially when they have guns but most of the elected officials don’t.
It’s a union - and an extremely powerful one at that. You can wish and hope all you want that it isn’t, but it is and shows just the kind of corruption and bullshit unions can be.
A union of seamstresses is not going to be able to hold the city hostage. Hell, even when Hoffa was running the teamsters–The most infamous example of union corruption in history–he couldn’t get a clause in the contract where a guy who killed a guy on the job got to keep his job.
The FOP is not indicative of unions in general.
