Rahm Emanuel and Unions Square Off Over Work Rules
"Over the past five years, the office of City Hall’s inspector general fielded about 200 complaints alleging that city truck drivers were loafing or sleeping at job sites. But the drivers were most likely not shirking any duties, said Inspector General Joseph Ferguson. And that, he said, is the real problem.
Because of agreements between the city’s leaders and employee unions, many drivers often are required only to chauffeur other employees and equipment to work sites across Chicago. Upon arrival, the drivers then just wait while other workers complete such tasks as installing street lights or trimming trees.

The sooner these cities eliminate public employee unions, the sooner this country can get back on track.

I don't think he's going to get rid of the unions. Did you read the article ?
But what the unions have that Chicago has to pay for is a tad overboard.

the consumer would then be in the drivers seat...oh how horrible that would be.
Your beloved government would be removed from the equation.
But the OP's post is a prime example of right wing hate for a working man sticking up for his family's well being.
I'm getting to the point that if you do not stop the BS following me around all over the forum, and using strawman argument nonsense, I will simply report the heck out of you until you are banned.
What you are doing is a violation of the forum rules, and I am warning you to stop it now.
