    Police union busting move. Will probably be a disaster but Kroll is a cunt. Police unions in general better look in the mirror. This IS a different time.

    If that's what comes out of all this, all the broken windows sacrificed at Old Navy will have been worth it.

    Yeah but why stop at only the police public sector union?

    I wouldn't.

    Public employee unions are a cancer on the taxpayers. A fucking cancer. Underperformers are protected and allowed to perpetuate inefficiencies in the government. Virtually impossible to fire a union employee in a government job.

    You and I are in full agreement but when do our good leftists who are just discovering this about police unions, apply it to all public sector unions? The answer is never.

    How does this not move towards short-term anarchy?

    I agree but it also goes both ways. I was a public employee and then a union for 12 years. I got outstanding reviews every year...but there is absolutely no merit increase or bonus attached as opposed to the private sector which is totally demoralizing. It was always “thanks....this review/meeting doesn’t mean anything but I appreciate the feedback.”
