The Most Clueless Union in America??

Wow, I thought the teachers' and cops' unions had there heads in the sand about fiscal reality these days, but these guys might take the prize. They work at what is a cultural nicety in a hollowed out shell of a city, and they're gonna strike?? I like the arts as much as the next guy, but it's not a right, nor is it a necessity. Throughout history, these institutions have only ever existed through the good graces of their benefactors. Maybe they are reading from the "Tavern on the Green Union Playbook" because, you know, no job is better than a non-union job.
