   Unions:The last refuge of sub-standard employees.
   While in a lot of cases that is sadly true, to be fair there are still instances where unions do serve a purpose, specifically the {gasp!} Teacher’s Union which does support untenured teachers against mostly unfounded allegations from students and parents. Kids make these allegations all the time, because they know that weaselly administrators will cave in to any parental demands.

   A lot of cases, Mr. B? I’d say more like the overwhelming majority. Most unions now serve to line the pockets of their officers, often by promoting policies that actually hurt their own rank and file.
