Most unions should be decertified, and certainly ALL government “worker” unions. They should all be busted under RICO statutes as nothing but extortion rackets and RAT money laundering operations.
The paper trail is all there, for anyone to see. Just look at opensecrets.org.

I continue to believe in the concept of unions, as I believe in giving people as much freedom as is reasonable. And that includes the freedom to form a union, and to speak with one voice.
Oh, and I also believe that every employer should have the freedom to reject union demands, and tell the workers to go back to work or be fired, permanently. The even playing field.
Anyway, yeah, you’re right about most unions. Unfortunately they have devolved into semi-criminal organizations. And that’s because the law would rather not prosecute them. Too many votes at stake.
And here’s the irony. Many rank-and-file union members wish the law WOULD go after the corrupt union leadership.
