Balzano has suddenly decided to resign from the union, and could not be reached. Nerzig insists that the resignation was entirely voluntary and he does not know the reasons Balzano chose to quit. But seven other executives of the SEIU local have now quit as well.

Good to hear the update on this.

“today’s mentally ossified union movement”
____________________________

“today’s?” ??? Nothing news, ossification has been a hallmark of the union movement for decades.

When I was a member of UFCW as a kid working in a grocery store in the 80s, the union newsletter was campaigning against scanners and insisting that prices should still be marked on each can of beans or box of cereal.

People complain (and with some justification) about union wages and benefits particularly in failing industries. But that’s not the biggest problem with unions- the biggest problem is the ludditism and the inflexibility of union work rules that make future innovations a lot less possible.

SEIU President Andy Stern, the scam artists, is a threat to labor as it once was. Power hungry Stern visits the White House and works with Obama on a personal level.
