"Social justice" now extends to preventing middle class Caucasian pedagogues from making contributions for their health and pension benefits?

Their "tithe" should be voluntary.
Agreed.

Speaks the truth.
My wife's in a union (APSCUF - Pennsylvania professors). The EMPLOYEES of APSCUF formed their OWN union.

Pedagogy predates Marx and Engels. By a few millennia.
And it is their profession, all nostalgic pretense for the little red schoolhouse aside.
Re: The case against public sector unionism
union-bashing rampant, but mgmt is never bashed.
VRWC brain-washing extremely successful, you dumbfucks.
Re: The case against public sector unionism
Yeah, I've seen no criticism of elected public officials in this forum. Back in your cage.
Re: The case against public sector unionism
"mgmt" is private-sector mgmt, you know, the guys making 400x the avg US salary while Real Americans' household income has stagnated for 30 years.
Re: The case against public sector unionism
Not in this case. "Mgmt" is the politician and the people are the shareholders, as it were.
If antipathy towards public employee unions signifies membership in the "VRWC" that term has a different meaning than what you appear to believe it does.
Re: The case against public sector unionism
The VRWC has poisoned millions of suckers against their own interests, against all govt, against unions, etc. while deflecting the true blame from the VRWC themselves.
The VRWC has really won, and America is in permanent decline.

The Tea Party Is Winning
Take five steps back and consider the nature of the political conversation in our nation’s capital. You would never know that it’s taking place at a moment when unemployment is still at 9 percent, when wages for so many people are stagnating at best, and when the United States faces unprecedented challenges to its economic dominance.
No, we are acting here as if the only real problem the United States confronts is the budget deficit, the only test of leadership is whether a president is willing to make big cuts in programs that protect the elderly, and the largest threat to our prosperity comes from public employees.
Take another five steps back and you realize how successful the tea party has been. No matter how much liberals may poke fun at them, tea party partisans can claim victory in fundamentally altering the country’s dialogue.

Right?

Unionized government jobs? Yes; yes, they are.
