Why the **** does a government agency need a union?

....and....Just who in the hell represents ME at the bargaining table? The notion of unions in the public sector is absurd.

As with ALL government programs...they always grow...become more expensive and less efficient. It is just the nature of government. The TSA was a massive mistake. The airlines are perfectly capable of handling their own security and actually might even be more intrusive than the TSA. The difference is that the customer would decide the level of personal liberty they are willing to give up for security...not a one size fits all governmental paradigm that cares less about the customer.

And now some government negotiator with no personal stake in the game will give them whatever they want and we will pay for it.

Yep...and we have NO representation at the bargaining table. Talk about a rigged game?
