Perhaps you should re-read the article and the comments, which were about UA funding.  Your property taxes or federal income taxes don't pay for that.  It's ironic that you commented on having to pay more because of overtime before you teed off on unions.

Without them you wouldn't have those rights.  It's simple: you're either on the side of working people, or you're on the side of the fatcats and billionaires who are taking more and more.  Whose side are you on?
