The percentage of American wage and salary workers who belonged to a union was only 11.1 percent in 2015, but the percentage of union members who worked for government was 48.9 percent, according to data released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
quote:
Government wage and salary workers were far more likely to belong to a union than private-sector wage and salary workers, the BLS reported. “Public-sector workers had a union membership rate (35.2 percent) more than five times higher than that of private-sector workers (6.7 percent),” the BLS said in the press release that accompanied the release of the data.

PM's posts are great examples of Union Labor. Bitch, bitch, bitch about productive workers, then post information that could only make sense to a dyslexic or impaired mental individual.
I've never had a conversation with an individual who worked for or on a government controlled site that couldn't write a book about waste of money and individual talent.
Flint Michigan is just the latest example of our governments efficiency. The poor democrat voters are reaping what they sowed.
I just noticed that the economy that PM is so proud of grew at a rate o 0.7% in the last quarter. To the Hillary and Bernie voters, those are awesome numbers that warrant another four years of Progressive Government.
