It would be nice that when there are success stories like this one, a conservative group would step in and say “see the difference when the Dems/Marxists/Libs are in charge and when you are allowed a choice. When private enterprise enters the picture. Look around you. If this can change for the better, what else could change if you change your voting habits.”
In my youth, I attended Washburn tradeschool in Chicago. They were the union school for plumbers, electricians, carpenters, whatever.
It was the most run-down building I had ever seen. I mean, it looked like it was from modern day detroit. Most of the windows were broken, the boilers never functioned. Most of the light switches did not work, and we regularly brought in our own fluorescent lights and installed them when no one was looking. Seriously. There were buckets everywhere because of roof leaks.
Why? Because state and city rules dictated that only a union journeyman could perform those duties. Now, we would work on diagrams, and wiring boards, bread boards etc, but we could NOT even change a light bulb. You would get expelled from the program.
In the winter, it was so cold at times with the broken windows and no working boilers, that they would bring in a metal garbage can and burn scrap wood inside the class-room. You regularly wore a winter coat and gloves.
There was no money in the budget to have the building repaired. So, they had one custodian, and one engineer (who we only say maybe once in a great while).
This is how the public / union sector work.
When I got into the Army, it was completely different. Wholly functional.
Gub’mint + Union = Washburn.
Just wait until Obama allows the unions to unionize the military.
