re: #3 Cineaste

Unions fall outside our normal definitions of what is and is not constitutional and lawful. They are granted specific anti-trust exemptions since they are allowed to collaborate to fix prices and the like (to wit: see SAG & AFTRA).

The unions in America need reform. The benefits packages states have been cowed into giving need to be revisited. That being said, Walker’s draconian methods are six or seven bridges too far. Unions have a place in America and should not be driven out entirely.

Wish I’d known how to use my union to cow the state while I worked there. I might have gotten a raise once in awhile.
