"and if you are a humanitarian----well?!" My basic point is that it is not humanitarian artificially exclude competition for "public service" (there is that oxymoron once again) jobs by raising artificial union created barriers to entry. Open the gates to competition for public sector jobs by creating more competition for those jobs. Take away the notion of tenure that comes with being hired to a public sector job. Once again, the public sector, once paid much lower wages than the private sector which were offset by job security and a great pension plan. Today public sector jobs enjoy high wages, job security and the best pension plans,,,the best of all worlds...great if you are a public sector worker...but unrealistic to think that an economy can support this topsy turvy reward system for any prolonged period.
