re: #274 Dark_Falcon

That’s decent idea, though the union would hate it. For them, such an action would threaten their ability to determine what top dollar is for their members. That would of course make the union less useful, which a secondary reason why I’d support such a measure.

Teachers unions in particular are absolutely horrible for younger workers. Job retention is based entirely on seniority—no consideration whatsoever to any other factor. Pay and benefits hugely go to those with longest time in the union. In a funny twist of fate—smelling the winds of change, no doubt—WEAC announced the day before (hah!) Walker’s budget plan that they were willing to reconsider their long standing opposition to pay structure and the seniority system.
