the ponzi bomb under the city walls

put there by public sector unions, it's now exploding. will it leave anything behind?
[This is about US cities, but applies to Canada, the provinces, and cities, too.
Allowing public sector unions to strike has, over time resulted in featherbedding, inflated pay, reduced work, inflated benefits, and inflated retirements that are higher than those in the private sector that has to support them. These unions are permitted to hold essential services for ransom, and the resulting public outcry always causes politicians to cave to unsustanable demands. Eventually, the chickens come home to roost and it becomes obvious that the 'entitlements' exceed the population's ability to meet them, resulting in disaapointment and anger all around. Then things get nasty. It is long past time to bring these unions to heel, but who dares to bell the cat?]
