It is common in Alaska where Big Labor has a stranglehold on the state for government to legalize extortion. Project labor agreements area perfect examples. PLA’s as they are called, require workers who chose not to join a union to give Big Labor bosses cash if they want to work. This legalized extortion serves no purpose other than to fatten Big Labor’s coffers. The non-union worker has no choice. He or she must pay or they can’t work the job.

There is no justification for this legalized extortion. But gubernatorial candidate Ethan Berkowitz tried anyway.
