You’re dreaming! Fact is, in right to work states, unemployment is MUCH LOWER, and wages are very competitive. Businesses, which need to be profitable to survive, are much more likely to locate in states with right to work laws. But if you’re an Obama supporter, I’m sure you think it’s more “fair” to be able to get paid more while doing less, ie: the “Union way.” Stop you’re complaining & get a life!

middleclasstaxpayer:

Following your “logical” reasoning for eliminating Labor Unions:

Sweat Shops @ 12 cents p/hour: Better than no job, right?
No Overtime, with mandatory 12 hour days: Better than no job?
No Health Insurance: At least you have a damn job?
Child Labor with no restrictions: Be grateful that you’re bringing in cash for your family. Screw school.

Sounds just like the GOP – and the future without Labor Unions.

The unions suck the blood out of the middle class workers. They threaten non union workers and go as far as to burn a church to the ground because it was being built bu non union workers. Unions are manned by thugs that want more than they are worth at the expence of everyone else. They need to be outlawed.

Obiously that the GOP does not support the middle class or the workers at all, all they want to do is benefit the Rich greety investors and Company owners, that want to pay as low as they can in order to have big gains. then they wonder what happen with employee loyalty, and higher Quality product. all what they get is People that go to work with a big resentment, because they can’t afford to pay Insurance for their family, they can afford to buy a new car or have a decent meal, I agree that because they are Investing in creating Jobs they want to have a huge profits, but Donot forget that the workers bust themselves to do the same.

I live in a right to work state employed in Health Care. Not only do we receive lower wages than union states , ( even though health care workers rarely unionize) we can be fired at any time for any reason. Or no reason. The unions have become somewhat corrupt and need some ironing out, but one must never forget what America was like before unions. For those who don’t may I suggest reading “The Jungle” by Upton Sinclair, or perhaps Google
” The Triangle Shirt Fire”, or” The Homestead Strike.” How about Hoover Ville ?
Please insist on “Made in America” products. Boycott companies that take our jobs to foreign sweat shops. Just saying……….
