I think unions are a good thing, but not for government jobs. And obviously there have been other union related disasters like in the auto field...
I think they serve a good purpose, but they need to be fine tuned. The government is simply unwilling to stand up to the unions like private companys will.
How are unions good in any form?
They were created for very different reasons than what they exist for today.
Today, unions are small groups of socialists living in a capitalistic environment.
Unions are a pacifier stuck hard and fast in the mouths of those who don't WANNA.
I am pro Union and this may be the reason I will have to vote Corzine, unless a strong Independant comes along.
Is your support for unions greater than your concern for the well being of the state? His support of unions doesn't help the state and there are some who argue it hurts the state. His actions on taxes and spending have certainly been detrimental. Ultimately the lack of jobs disproportianally affect union members.

And the employees have the right to join together & act as one.

For what? Fair working conditions?
The day and age where unions meant anything are LONG GONE. Today, unions are nothing more than a form of out-dated bribery.
