The Union’s Special Deal

A few weeks ago I was arguing with a union person about the value of unions, he had two common statements one you can’t talk about the unions if you have never belonged to one and two the unions have been getting trashed by the corporations and others for years. Now with the revelation of the special favors for unions in healthcare I think the people can clearly see the unions for what they have become today, all about themselves. If the fact that only 9% of non-union workers want to be involved with a union, and seriously what’s stopping them, doesn’t say something, I don’t know what can. Also on the ‘you can’t talk about the union if you have never belonged to it’ argument, I don’t need to experience the Holocaust to know that Hitler & Nazism was a bad idea, or to have lived under Soviet rule to know socialism and communism are bad. This is just more bad news for the American People, from the Obama Administration.
