Union workers are above middle class

So the public employee unions say they are the middle class. That’s funny, most people don’t get the large pensions of union members, particularly when you consider what they contribute to their pension. Most people also don’t just refuse to go to work and inconvenience thousands of other people so they can get their way. Most people don’t get their salary increased toward the end of their career so they can have a nice fat pension.

There’s nothing middle class about public employee union members, they have it much better than most other people. If the unions are middle class, is it right for them to ask the lower class to pay for their pensions?
