One taxpayer feels his California town is completely owned by Unions. The county government – at the behest of unionized county employees – is implementing a “construction stabilization” plan. It would be nice to think that this kind of stuff only happens in California, but it seems that “leveling” the playing field (i.e. forcing non-union companies out of business while bailing out the unionized ones that fail) is just the way we handle things these days.
