Unions
I heard a report on "Morning Edition" today http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=135576309 telling how the Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers has filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board stating that Boeing is engaging in unfair labor practices by moving work to their non-unionized South Carolina plant. The fact that this union has any say in the operation of a private business shows how the power of government and rent seeking union reduces efficiency, job opportunities for non-union workers and hurts society as a whole. I hope the NLRB changes its ways soon so that ALL workers can have a chance at jobs instead of those privileged union workers.
