Then why don't they simply go after union dues and get THEM lowered. Why reduce wages when higher wages mean a better economy and the rich get richer.

Mostly because public unions ensure you have to keep the crappy employees employed. The union protects those who should be removed. This is the same for private unions, too.
IMO, if unions simply policed their own and ensured the crappy ones were gotten rid of, everyone would want to have unions around.
Since when do higher wages without a commensurate increase in production lead to a better economy?

Lower taxes. This isn't complicated.

Aren't the folk who increase productivity the ones the unions bargain with? Workers work as they are trained to. It is the job of the employer to increase productivity. If productivity isn't going up, cut their salaries, no?
Why do Democrats want to destroy unions by ignoring illegal immigration and driving entire industries to use illegally imported labor forces?
I bet if a major corporation used political contributions to get got a law passed that said that everyone in the state that works in their industry must work for their company, and employees must pay mandatory 5% cut of their paycheck automatically deducted to be used for political contributions which 100% of went to republicans which passed those very laws, Democrats would be up in arms and calling for laws banning such a blatantly corrupt and unfair practice.
Production is higher than ever before, wages have gone down for everyone but the richest since Reagan was elected, and the economy sucks.
