hi all,
The reintroduction of Public Safety Employer-Employee Cooperation Act, which mandates all the state to grant public employees the minimum collective bargaining rights, makes me ask :
Why shouldn't the state grant public workers the right to bargain on wage, working hours?
I feel some of the arguments a bit confusing.
For instance, people say public workers is earning taxpayers money. One of the possible repercussion would be public workers demanding of higher wages which directly results in higher tax, an extra burden for the taxpayers.
However, could it be the reasonable to waive the right all over? If you agree with the above statement, what do you think is the alternative to ensure the public workers right? Or should they be give the right at all?
What makes the Act controversial??
