It’s simple. You should not be able to strong arm your neighbors to pay you more and give you benefits the rest of the taxpayers will never get. Let me explain.
If you work for a private company, big or small, who do you negotiate with for your pay and benefits? The boss, the guy who runs the company. If it’s a small company, that might be just one person and he’s pays your salary. In a large corporation there is probably a committee of people appointed by the President/CEO to negotiate with employees. What happens in the public sector is completely different..
