Union bargaining just a dream for many gov workers:
"...To be sure, government jobs are still seen as more secure and desirable than most private-sector jobs even in states where public employees do not have the right to collective bargaining. In Mississippi, one of the poorest states in the nation, state workers get 10 paid holidays a year, their sick days and vacation days can be rolled over from year to year, and they can retire after 25 years of service under a defined benefit plan. They also have a certain level of civil-service job protection..."
Well, whoopee. I wonder how public employee pay and benefits stack-up against public employees in a country, say Germany, that is not trying to enslave its citizens?
