I don't disagree, I'm not an expert on collective bargining.
However first and foremost, clearly the public sector isn't working thus huge deficits, failures in health care services etc. So maybe its time to change the fundamental understanding of how it works. Maybe the people that are designing and managing and running the public services are the ones that are out of touch with the modern reality.
Second, a collective bargaining agreement shouldn't be a suicide pact and that's why there's an expiration date on them so they can be adjusted properly, and to me its due time for a hard adjustment.
