I will not dicuss the obvious and rational purpose of labor unions of privately employed labourors.
What I am trying to understand, and refuse because of the conclusions I must draw, is following:
What purpose serve labor unions of workes in the state administration?
Taking the abnormal situation in present day Romania the "state" labour unions represent a lot of (maybe too many) workers. But why?
The argument goes like this: if the state (specifically the government) is supposed to represent the citizens (in a democratic parliamentary republic like Romania), why do some citizens (wich by coincidence are also workers) need another body of representation - the unions to represent them in front of the other representatives.
It seems a little ilogical to have two organizations doing practically (almost) the same, and yet paradoxically sometimes even get in conflict.
the conclusion must be, the statesmen no longer represent the romanian people, wich in turn need for a specific domain (labour) some other organization to represent them. or in other words, the state is just another corporation - only part of the society, thus not the result of an understanding (convention) between the majority of the members of the romanian society.
this is a pretty serious supposition, wich I'm not sure is correct due to my lack of information on the subject, so I'd better stop here before drawing more absurd conclusions out of it.
would it be true, it would mean romania is not a state, it's just a place on the map, where some people obey some laws, wich might change over time unexpectadly - where it's not predictable who what law obeys and where some bigger organizations of people arbitraly exercise their power to big numbers of people.
