IN ANOTHER show of hate for workers, especially unionised federal workers, Republican President Donald Trump, masterminded by union-hating multibillionaire Elon Musk, declared he will trash all union contracts in the federal government.
Trump actually declared that “collective bargaining runs counter to the American system of self-government.” He and his pal Musk have said no such thing about corporate monopolisation and the collective price gouging and fixing that goes along with it.
The immediate prod to his ire were two pacts the predecessor Democratic Biden administration signed with Government Employees (AFGE) locals, one representing Social Security’s workers and the other covering Education Department workers. Trump wants to abolish the department.
