Working for the state means you should have to give up the right to unionizing. In a corporate negotiation with a union,there is clear incentives for getting the best deal for your respective side, and to get back to work. A public entity negotiating with a union does not have the same incwntives to protect the bottom line of the tax payer. The result in the long term is that the negotiation is almost always weighted in favor of the union,as the public entity will inevitably shrug off the extra cost and pass it on to the tax payers.
