Glenn Beck Show: Big Labor’s Unfunded Pensions Will Bankrupt America

Last week, National Right to Work President Mark Mix appeared on Glenn Beck with guest host Judge Andrew Napolitano to discuss the looming fiscal threat of government sector unions’ under-funded pension plans.

As Mix notes, even FDR understood the dangers of giving union bosses monopoly bargaining power at the expense of public sector workers and the taxpayers. Cities like Vallejo, California, have even declared bankruptcy as a result of their budget nightmares.

Unfortunately, union bigwigs are likely to exploit states’ and cities’ fiscal woes by lobbying for expansions of their power. One toxic example is the Police and Firefighters Monopoly Bargaining Bill, which would impose union boss control on all first responders across the country by federal fiat.
