This isn't a union leader problem. On the contrary, quite a few unions are close to 50% conservative voters. The leaders recognize this and are representing their membership by not endorsing either candidate. Not a good thing in my opinion but a fact right now. The trades are often filled with folks who don't pay the most attention to politics even if it should matter to them. They hear tax cut and that motivates more than anything.

More efficient does not equate to cheaper for consumers, it just means more profits for the owners. A private company will always maximize those profits at the expense of the consumer. A public consortium has no need for profit and can spread costs evenly across all users based on usage.
