Union Abuse of Power

Tweet

Whild traveling I was on 4 different toll roads in 4 different states. Two of the states used an electronic pass to allow people to drive through havethe toll charged to a credit card. In another state you drove up to a toll booth and pushed a button and received your ticket. In each case there was a person sitting in the booth reading and getting paid for it. I learned later that the Unions threatened to strike if the state used the automated system and eliminated any positions. Unions are slowly bleadiing us to death with unneeded workers and expenses. I remember the fights in the 60's with the real roads over the use of Breakman and Fireman on trains. They did not perform any function but had to be maintained and could not be given additional duties. The Unions almost distroyed the Rail Road Industry in this nation.
