Government Unions : Super Citizens

Wisconsin is having trouble reining in state unions. Facing a budget deficit, Governor Scott wants give backs and layoffs. The unions won't hear of it. They have assembled mean demonstrations and enlisted the help of other affiliated unions that are not involved in the layoffs or give backs. SEIU is the prime example of a union throwing its weight around in an effectively immoral way.

The unions are behaving like a criminal enterprise and should be prosecuted under RICO statutes. Imagine Lockhheed getting help from Ford to get a contract away from Boeing. Also if one works for the government, the strike right should not be available. Otherwise it's like a super citizenship. I.E. not only does the union worker administer policy but it can demand pay and benefits not available to the citizenship it supposedly serves. Rule by decree is not tolerated by tyrants or loud mouth union bosses and their friends in government.

P.S. President Obama has just released a statement that the Wisconsin people and their legislature are "assaulting unions". He's implying that he's not concerned with unions outrageous demands.

John Wilkes Booth dealt with another radical.
