The only sector of the unionized labor force that has shown significant growth in recent years are public employee unions. Such unions pushing for ever higher wages and particularly unsustainable pension benefits have been at the forefront of many a recent state and local financial crisis. Increasingly such unions are seen as being full of featherbedders and incompetent busy bodies who presume to rule over rather than serve the taxpayers. That they are making unions toxic to average American voters is not surprising.
