Was in a union for about 2 years, had to leave, some of the laziest people I have ever seen in my life. They said the same thing about you when you left.

Unions are good for union members only The end user pays for it all. Why a new pickup costs what it does. Why non-union members have to buy China goods at Walmart.

Do you blame other for all your problems? Wages and benefits go up for non union people when there is a union option becuse the non union place is competing for the same labor pool. People have more disposable income spen that money on new things that in turn create more jobs. Broke people don't stimulate the economy. .

Serious questions: Does union membership elect their leadership? If they do, why don't they vote out leadership that doesn't reflect majority opinion? If they don't, how does one get into a leadership position? I don't know how unions work since I was self employed my entire working career. I have voted on local offices but never on international spots. Honestly it's just the best paying job with the best benefits to me nothing more. I posted this just becuse few of the people with union derangement syndrome seem to want to believe more union members vote R than D. Since this is a more left pushing news source I fig it would be good to show that.

Keith And how much less do you pay for the non Union made vehicles? NONE That's because having a vehicle made by union members adds no additional value to it. The quality is no better and may be worse. A big disadvantage of buying union made vehicles is that the democrats are going to profit from it. Keith

If they TRULY represented their members, they WOULD make an endorsement... Internal poll, phone poll was within 2% of this one. Yup. They want their members dues, just not their opinions.

Honestly it's just the best paying job with the best benefits to me nothing more. this statement is demonstrably incorrect. in fact, the mere fact of this particular thread proves that. you have ALWAYS taken union criticism as a PERSONAL affront.
