But that's exactly what a union is: a lobbying group that strives for a better outcome on behalf of its members. "Independence" is not part of their job description. Why wouldn't they talk to politicians, or even publicly support the political parties that are more aligned with their goals? Or do you believe that is a privilege to be reserved only for the rich?
- christkv 4mo agoSure be a lobbying group but without public funding. If your members can't be bothered to pay the cost of the union it can cease to exist.
- tremon 4mo agoIn other words, yes you do believe that having direct access to politicians is a privilege to be reserved only for the rich.
- christkv 4mo agoNo I believe that you should not be paid my tax money to run your politically motivated union. The members of the union should.
- tremon 4mo agoAh, but that's not your tax money you see; your tax money is being spent on other things you don't like such as teacher salaries. It's other people's tax money that's being used to maintain unions.
- christkv 4mo agoYou make a lot of assumptions about other people don’t you and what they believe. You should learn to see the world as a spectrum of grays instead of black and white. Two things can be true at the same time.
