you're assuming everyone in a union gets a big fat gold plated pension.
not everyone in a union does, you know.

for example, non academic staff at post secondary institutions don't have a gold plated pension. it's a good pension that about 10% of their pay goes into every month. the average non union joe that invests 10% of his pay cheque is probably going to do just as well if not better when they retire.

glad you think all union employee are living high off the hog.
