5 reasons unions are bad for the US

http://townhall.com/columnists/johnh...ica/page/full/

some snippets:

At one time in this country, there were few workplace safety laws, few restraints on employers, and incredibly exploitive working conditions that ranged from slavery, to share cropping, to putting children in dangerous working conditions. Unions, to their everlasting credit, helped play an important role in leveling the playing field for workers.

However, as the laws changed, there was less and less need for unions. Because of that, union membership shrank. In response, the unions became more explicitly involved in politics. Over time, they managed to co-opt the Democratic Party, pull their strings, and rewrite our labor laws in their favor.

1) Unions are severely damaging whole industries
2) Unions are ruining public education:
3) Unions are costing you billions of tax dollars:
4) Unions are fundamentally anti-democratic :
5) Government unions are bankrupting cities and states
