What do you have against keeping public sector worker wage increases limited to cost of living unless approved by the voters?
What do you have against letting public sector workers decide whether they want a union to represent them?
Why do you support punishing a cash strapped town for using private plow trucks to take up the slack for the unions inability to get the job done in an emergency?

Because it proves that private companies can rip of the public just as much as "unions can" as long as they have elected officials in their pocket enough.
Look at my hometown for example. they built a new parking garage with no bidding for contracts. why? because the guy in charge was an old business buddy of the contractor in charge for the parking garage...and undoubtedly that cost the city of Traverse City a lot of money.
I'm not against saving money..but i am against the GOP busting unions for their own gain or because they want to help their buddies.
