Governor Kasich of Ohio in the USA, says by the curtailing the power of the public sector government workers , more jobs will be created.
Government workers should have never had unions in the first place since their employers are the people and not private enterprises with individual motives for making money. Governor Kasich is a free trader who supported President Clinton in the passage of NAFTA and GATT trade agreements when he was in Congress. He is part of the problem and not the solution. Free trade is a war on the middle class. The Governor was also in the investment community that used workers as tools to create money products. Now our economy based on making money on money instead of making things has burn out. The government workers are now the latest victims to take the consequences as the private sector workers have fallen into a new working poor class.
They do not make enough money to support needs government services. However, his is not the time to do degrade the value of public sector workers. A steel worker friend of mine, said that President Reagan was right in firing the Traffic Controllers and I told him he was wrong.
The firing of the Traffic Controllers represented an attack on all unions.
The assault on government workers now represent a war against all of the middle class with the government workers unions representing the last line of resistance to the fall of the middle class in the U.S.
Today, the private sector production workers unions are virtually gone compared to the past. Today many steel workers have their pension payments coming from the Federal Government after their pension plans went broke. This turned out to be a special interest payment at the expense of all other union workers and non-union workers. This is left out of the picture as the federal pension insurance fund is now bankrupt too.
Good people like Governor Kasich and Neil Cavuto should know that workers are not tools of Capitalism. Workers do not serve the needs of capital but capital should serve the needs of workers as the priority in our society.
Social Justice is not a dirty word. Even good people like Glen Beck who is trying to save the American Dream for all, tries to isolate this term to radical liberals and communists. Social Justice is the basis of Rerum Novarum. Rerum Novarum and encyclical by Pope Leo in the late 1890s, still stands as the standard for human dignity in the workday. Pope John Paul in his encyclical Laborem Exercens says " Unions are a mouthpiece in the struggle for social justice." He said that in the order of things "work exists for man, not man for work."
This means, there is a priority of human labor over capital.
The free traders use Adam Smith to defend their practices. However Adam Smith held human labor as something sacred and the core of all society while free trade uses workers as tools of capital.
Human labor in our materialistic world, is treated as an instrument of capital property.
Pope Benedict's economic encyclical relates the value of workers to love itself. One of the first five saints, he cannonized in 2005 was Padre Alberto Hurtado, a workers priest. He lived in our times and and died in 1952 at the age of 51. He never belonged to a politcal party because he saw them as dividing the working class. I stop voting for either major party in the U.S. for that reason years ago. Both major party act as one when it comes to free trade that devastated human dignity in the workday. Free trade as made workers the main commodities of our times. Workers are put on a global block to be traded as objects of the money changers for the sake of cheaper and cheaper labor down to wage slave and even child labor.
Good people like Governor Kasich help pass the unfair NAFTA and GATT trade agreements that made laws that further the degradation of human labor. He and even people like Rush Limbaugh backed President Clinton and a Democrat controlled congress in the passing of the free trade bills.
Now it is more than fifteen years later with a vast new working poor class created. The middle class for most part is gone. Now the same free traders have their eyes on government workers who represent the last line of resistance for the middle class.
All should have know what was going to happen many years ago. In the late 1980s, about 700,000 workers in the steel industry and about 400,000 workers in the auto industry lost their jobs. Now I see that about a half of the automobiles in teachers's parking lots are foreign automobiles. What did they think was coming. Free trade has boomeranged back to them. It is their turn in the tank. What did they think was going to happen when the private sector production workers unions only represent 15 percent of membership in the AFL-CIO while the teachers' unions represent about 50 percent of the total membership.
The retail and service workers make up the rest but they make less than $10 an hour. There is a retail union that pickets a big box store where I live. All they want is a decent wage of about $10 an hour. I wonder how many government workers ever joined this picket line and how many cross the picket line to shop at the big box store.
Many reports show how many of the retail workers at places like Walmart need government and private help to survive. The government workers were in denial about this and now act surprised about the attack on them. It was obvious it would happen. I also wonder what they were thinking when more than a million workers in the computer industry lost their jobs with the computer supposedly being an essential part of the classroom.

The money changers are now in control in many states - the liberals who talk one way but act another way stand on the sidelines and do not know what to do.
The liberatarians sound good in their overviews of the problems but never bring up the priorities of human labor over capital or anything about unfair competition.
