| Union Vote For F Troop |
| 2011-01-25 |
| The Transportation Security Administration, the 21st century's answer to F Troop, may get even more efficient, responsive and diligent about ignoring concerns about matters of security and complaints from travelers. A vote to unionize the 40,000 person workforce is scheduled for March 9. The election will be the largest in the history of the federal government. To be decided will be whether to unionize, and if so, whether to join the National Treasury Employees Union or the American Federation of Government Employees If the to vote to unionize is yes, as expected, expect dramatic changes. It will be like Gilligan being able to file a grievance if the Skipper should smack him with his hat. |

| #1 If they do vote for a union, it will be the end of them. A big part of W.'s post 9-11 reforms was to break a bunch of government unions, during the big security reorg. This saved a ton of money, so chances are that if the TSA goes union, it will be the end of the TSA. The next Republican prez will turn security back over to the airports and airlines. |
