Restrictions: None
Spending
non-union members
have eight-hour work weeks
overtime hazard pay
job safety requirements
legal protections
from harassment
and discrimination

because union members
have unions

the public sector
is the police officer
the firefighter
the paramedic
even the DMV

government spending
is why we have roads
K-12 guaranteed
clean water air food

taxes equal national security
as well as earmarks

cuts to the public sector
are additions
to the unemployment rolls

which we all pay for
in the end
one way or the other
