The union is simply a legal representative of all the employees, so each employee doesn't need to negotiate separately.
Teachers have negotiated - by the taxpayers - agreements for performance. If the teachers don't reach them, they can lose their jobs. It works both ways.
Demonizing unions is as silly as demonizing taxpayers.

The taxpayer representation was more often than not put in place by the unions. They (NJEA) gave the governorship of NEW Jersey to one of the biggest scumbags in the history of politics (however much Uncle Joe loves him it is true) what is he supposed to do after that?
