Akash Chougule provides a clear and simple explanation of who it is ridiculous to permit public sector unions, and even more ridiculous to threaten public employees with loss of their job because they do not want to pay union dues that support policies and practices that are against their personal beliefs.
Heck, even Franklin Roosevelt, a strong leftist President, vehemently opposed public sector unions and for very good reasons. John Kennedy gave us this problem on a wholesale basis. It, too, the Supreme Court to put an end to it with the Janus v. AFSCME case. May it rest in peace.
