Unions are plenty greedy. In SF, police officers make 400k, bart officials make 300k+ and firemen make 200k+. They are also part of the (general) problem. And all of those jobs should also be targets of automation.

So when I sort by pay, what I see is only one single record with a police officer making more than 400k, out of what it says is more than 200,000 people in 4,200 pages in that database. And there are only 9 people shown with base pay over 200k in all of California.
I have no idea what the story is with Paulo Morgado, but you simply cannot claim he's representative of all SF police officers.
That makes your comment seem pretty dramatically misleading... so how do you reconcile this with your comment above? Are you reconsidering your thoughts here? Doesn't the data you posted tend to not point at unions, or possibly point in the opposite direction, that unions aren't a factor?
