Fair pay

Senator Sanders allowed his campaign workers to form a union and now they are asking for more pay. They are working long hours and not earning $15 per hour so his solution is to cut the hours. I worked in a manufacturing plant that had a cafeteria and one year part of the negotiations was that the union would take over running the cafeteria. The first thing they did was to hire all new people and to pay them lower wages. I had a friend who was head of the local teamsters for many years and was always a tough negotiator. When he retired he became county commissioner and negotiated tough with the teamsters. Things like this change based on your perspective. It is easy to tell others how they should treat employees when it is not your money. This is one of the complaints about public unions. They are negotiating with taxpayer money.
