Daddy had begrudgingly put the PATCO sticker on his car because he felt he had no choice. I think his first act as a retired person was to scrape it off.
Air traffic controllers currently average $121,000 per year. I have no problem with it.
My problem is why they ever needed a union - and, likewise, why do we even allow unions in this country at all. Their day has long passed, there are laws and lawyers all over the place to take care of abused workers. And they can even quit if they don’t like how they’re treated, of if they think they should advance faster.
But people, even on this site, still defend unions...

Why do government employees need to unionize? To protect themselves from eeeeevil taxpayers?
