This is a good listen as to the problem with public unions:

1. The gov doesn't haven't to turn a profit, so there is no alternative if prices are driven too high by union negotiations.

2. The union members get to vote on both sides of the table: both for their union wages and for the elected "neutral" party, that is obviously not so neutral.
