Why does the GOP have such a hatred towards the average worker who wakes up, goes to work day in and day out, and gets paid a good wage while being a member of a union? It is so apparent that they hate the middle class its unreal. What is going on in this country? A hatred for some person making $45,000 with some benefits like they are the demon. They must want to see all wages for middle and lower class people go down. Sick.
The GOP doesn't hate anyone. It is a political ideal system. The people that pay taxes are "offended" that the people whose salaries are paid by them are using "lobbyist" to get into bed with politicians that set their pay (notice I didn't mention party, they both do it). Those benefits and salaries package are way larger than what the taxpayer earns for the same amount of work. The taxpayer doesn't think that a NYC blue collar worker should make $775,000 in one year, when a taxpayer working 80 hour weeks can only make ~$150,000 in the same amount of time for similar work. The unions have priced US labor out of competition with the rest of the world, and now the jobs are going, going, gone. If you try to talk to union leadership about it, they want to declare that there is money enough to go around. They will not tell you that money is, now, going aroung to other parts of the world, in part, thanks to their unreasonable, unsustainable demands. You can let organized labor rule the country and have few jobs, or you can allow businesses to negotiate their own labor and have tons of jobs. Which would you prefer (this is a one or the other question)?
