Denmark Liberty- strangers can collectivize to leverage money directly out of your wallet, your options are to 1. Take it, or 2. Take it.
Thanks for the Civics lesson, comrade.
No, the only argument is that allowing them to collectively bargain grants them the same liberty you have. Arguing against that right is arguing against the notion that all citizens enjoy the same constitutional liberties.DBTrek wrote:Again, they collectively bargain against taxpayers who have no representation or advocates at the bargaining table - and the best Bjorn can offer is “Well, just because they bargain doesn’t mean they have the right to win!”

In terms of liberty, there isn't any difference. Just like your right to unionize in a private sector job is not meant to hinge on wether or not your employeer can afford your wages or not, it is not cost that determines wether a public sector employee has a right to unionize.DBTrek wrote:I'm surprised you don't see the difference.
Private sector union - labor organizes collectively to extract concessions from the employer, who is also the paymaster. The employer has a direct interest in either defending his business as is, or making some concessions to maintain the current workforce.
Public sector union - labor organizes collectively against the non-elected government bureaucracy (employer), and against their paymaster (the taxpayers). Management, the non-elected government bureaucrats running state and federal departments, have no direct stake in "the business". Nor are they beholden to some kind of "bottom line", profit margin, or shareholder expectations to keep their budgets in the black. Neither their livelihood nor the continued existence of their organization is at stake. The taxpayers, ultimately on the hook for all financial concessions, have no representation at the bargaining table at all.
But you know, it's all about liberty . . for the government employee.
Not so much for the taxpayer.

It's interesting to see which way the tails thin out on that list. Anybody have the standard deviation calculated or as part of some list?Okeefenokee wrote:What the hell is this, Malaysia?Speaker to Animals wrote:This is a table of nations ranked by average IQ:

The nearly uniform finding from this research is that students benefit academically when they attend private school, rather than the public school that they would otherwise have attended. Some disagreement persists about how large the private schools' impact is and about whether it affects all students or only those from particular backgrounds—but not even the harshest critics claim that attending a private school harms students.
Of particular interest to budget-strapped state and local governments is that the cost of the vouchers in these studies—and even the total tuition charged by the private schools, if it's greater than the cost of the voucher—is well below what the public schools would spend to educate the same child. For instance, economist Robert Costrell found that by paying tuition to send 18,500 public school kids to private schools, Milwaukee saved taxpayers $31.9 million in 2008.
