What if employees of COSCO through collective bargaining took 100% of all profits? That would kill the goose (a local business) that lays many golden jobs.
So what happens when S.C. County employees use collective bargaining to get as much as they can? There are no government profits to split up, just “costs†which politicians pass on to taxpayers. The SEIU representatives dangle campaign contributions in front of our politicians’ noses.
Results? Public sector union local 520 SEIU employees (2007-2010) got 100% of their retirement and 95% of health paid by the County.
Each S.C. County SEIU public union employee who retires at 55 with a $30,000 pension over the next 20 years will receive at least $600,000. That’s one golden egg! And not a dime paid by the public sector employee.
