Want to know why unions own the state of California? Governor Jerry Brown in 1979 gave the State to the unions, via "collective bargaining"
Collective bargaining means that the State recognizes that ONLY unions represent workers--and that all workers must pay bribes, in order to work for the government.
"Collective bargainings exact role in our states current pension debacle is still debated. Some analysts, like Chapman University Fellow Joel Kotkin, see it as the beginning of the end.
Encouraged by reforms backed by Brown such as the 1978 Dill Act (sic), which legalized collective bargaining for them the public-employee unions became the best-organized political force in California and currently dominate Democrats in the legislature, Kotkin wrote in the Summer 2010 issue of City Journal. According to the unions, public funds should be spent on inflating workers salaries and pensions or else on expanding social services, often provided by public employees and not on infrastructure or higher education, which is why Brown famously opposed new freeway construction and water projects and even tried to rein in the states university system.”
Jerry Brown started the ball rolling into what today is a bankrupt State of California. He must be proud!
