    No, you can have selective limits, tied to how much risk the job imposes on the surroundings (like universal regulation on any job requiring being armed). Unions are supposed to be about worker power against the employer, not against society.

      Well unfortunately in the case of US police unions, it’s an anti-labor force using a labor organization as a disingenuous hedge against accountability. And also at the end of the day a police union resisting insurance requirements for it’s members actually is a case of workers (Class traitors, but workers all the same) organizing against their employer.
