About damn time someone started calling for it. Ironically, this is the stance that FDR, huge supporter of unions, had too. He wouldn't support them in the first place because he foresaw the conflict of interest they would create and the corruption they would bring.
On the heels of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's history-making recall victory, the governor of nearby Indiana with his own record of curtailing union benefits suggested public-sector unions are past their prime and should be abolished.
"I think, really, government works better without them," Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels told "Fox News Sunday," when asked whether public-worker unions should even exist.
Daniels had cracked down on collective bargaining for state workers as soon as he took office in 2005, six years before Walker and his GOP allies in the state legislature started down the same path -- triggering a backlash that forced him to stand for election this past Tuesday. Walker made history as the first governor to survive the recall test, beating Democrat Tom Barrett.
Daniels said that vote should send a message about the problems with public-sector unions.
"I think the message is that, first of all, voters are seeing the fundamental unfairness of government becoming its own special interest group, sitting on both sides of the table," he said.

Threatening violence Diaper Boy?
First responders need their unions. They need special advocacy due to the risks they face on the job and the split-second nature of the some of the decisions they are forced to make, decisions which members of the public critique from the safety of their armchairs and for which calculating politicians will throw them under the bus.
I think citizens KNOW thier importence and will advocate good pay for them. They DON'T need Union's idiots speaking for them.

BTW, he has served my state well. He accomplished what we set out to do in 1976 when we elected Richard Lugar for the first time
The mutual backscratching party between Government sector Unions and the Democrat Party is coming to an end. The taxpayers are onto the scam. Who will the Dems buy off next?
So, as you know, private sector membership is under 7 percent now and that can't be blamed on Scott Walker or frankly anyone else in public life. Again, on the government side, honest people can differ. But I think there is a fundamental problem with government becoming its own special interest groups, force dues, recycle in politics to elect compliant and friendly politicians in an unending circle.
And ultimately, there is not really bargaining in those situations, because government sits on both sides of the table.

Just curious; do you think all of the middle managers at these public facilities should be abolished too or just unionized front line workers who may deal with the public?

Your question doesn't make sense.
"When government/public service becomes the least rewarding and insecure job there is, like working at the 7/11, republicans will finally get the dysfunctional government they think we have now. "
While I wouldnt go that far, the average cop/snowplowdriver/teacher needs to be laid off. New ones need to be hired at about $20,000 a year. Those people are villains. Those dang kindergarten and high school history teachers. They are the reason for the ENTIRE fiscal crisis. Take their money and GIVE it WILLINGLY to the corporate donors. I will write my check to the biggest corporation in my state as they are entitled to take my tax dollars rather than my neighbor who teaches 2nd grade. 2nd grade teachers are the scurge of society. Ask the tea party.

You poor suckers on the right who have let the rich and powerful, the money interests, the corporate interests, convince you that your enemy is the guy who picks up your garbage because his union got him some affordable healthcare and some money when he retires.
Very sad.
Appeal to idiocy
Very sad.
