It is simpler to outsource to other countries, even to other states than to pay the excessive wages that unions demand

Unions are their own worst enemies.

During those five years, the federal government has spent a total $3.7 trillion on approximately 80 different means-tested poverty and welfare programs. The common feature of means-tested assistance programs is that they are graduated based on a person’s income and, in contrast to programs like Social Security or Medicare, they are a free benefit and not paid into by the recipient
