No, government is mandated to serve all Americans.

Unions are mandated to serve their members.

Yes. And if union dues were spread out over all kinds of pet projects and candidates per each member’s choice it wouldn’t be a very effective union. Union members can vote on a number of things, one being who their leadership is and who’s making those decisions. It’s a democratic republic on a much smaller scale.
