That's always been my problem with unions. They start out representing the people who needed them, then they start running political games and forget to serve the people who vote for them.
Maybe if the unions couldn't funnel money to the political parties, something might get done.
Most boomers graduated high school before the teacher's union was created. Were we perfect? Far from it but most of us could read, write, had math skills and, most importantly, think for ourselves because that was the way we were taught.

That about sums it up...unions today have no interest to serve their members and the objective they serve. They are power grabbing hogs
