Ah. So if I don't want the government to institute a new program, I can simply refuse to acquiesce? Oh, wait, no. Because I'm just a voter, not an executive with veto power.
Even were they not so influential in elections, unions in NH are super-citizens WRT public spending. They get to dictate policy without input from the rest of society, because they can refuse changes to their working conditions or job security. How is that not a problem?
