A Common sense approach to a Good Work Ethic

The Senate is proposing a bill that would pay union workers for their performance which is a common sense approach to a good work force. So instead of the across the board pay raise workers would get a raise based on their work. The Washington Post reports that “Jacqueline Simon , public policy director at the American Federation of Government Employees, said the Senate bill ‘is all on the negative, the threat of punishment for poor performance." She added, "This is all stick and no carrot.’”

I would disagree; this is a much needed bill that would give workers an incentive to do a better job and profit both the individual and employer (and your taxes). The old system does not perform well because if you are going to get a pay raise and what you do does not matter, why work hard, and why try? I hope this bill passes because it is good for all Americans.
