I am often asked what is the difference between an industry with Union workers and one without that infestation.

Actually it is quite simple. In the photo we see what our transit system could look like if it wasn't burdened with early full-funded retirements (at 55 no less), zero employee contribution to their health program, annual raises untied to productivity, refusal to fairly fund their pension plan (now only 2%), resistance to reasonable disciplinary rules, contempt for the riding public and NY state's Taylor Law, a disgruntled workforce because of Union agitation, Union propaganda that labor and capital are in a class struggle, salaries that are much more than professionals who have more skills, and the obvious laziness of most Union workers since it is near impossible to fire them unless we catch them raping passengers or laying sticks of dynamite on the rails.
