Municipal Unions

Municipal unions serve no function other than to protect their members & union officials from economic reality. When municipal unions collectively bargain with our elected or appointed state county, or local officials they are bargaining with themselves. Municipal unions have fostered the idea that municipal workers (policeman, fireman, teachers, etc. ) work for the state, they don't, municipal workers work for the taxpayers, and the taxpayers have no-one to represent them in any collective bargaining between any current municipal unions. As some one once said " if you want to control someone first appear to serve them."
