I’m in a union and I’ve seen first hand why and how unions serve a good purpose. I know some are over the top but most aren’t.

In a county in full attack against the middle class (by both Democrats and Republicans) union jobs are about all that remain of a decent standard of living. Stand strong.

“union jobs are about all that remain of a decent standard of living. Stand strong.”

Let’s be quite clear here. No “union” creates jobs, indeed they impede job creation.

Unions benefit the mediocre, not the talented and skilled.

“Stand Strong” doesn’t exclude violence in looking after union interests - which are not the same as the interests of union membership.

So, spare us the BS about unions creating anything.

If you had ever created a job, you’d agree with me.

Actually the union is all about a high standard of living, for union bosses.

Since more and more people have decided they are better off not being enslaved to unions the Union supported illegal aliens being allowed to join unions and defended them as they take American Jobs from Americans. Which is the main cause of the loss of jobs that would have traditionally gone to the middle class.

The union members are important only as long as they pay dues.

That is why they oppose equipment that would make the workers safer because that would mean that there would be three less people paying dues.

So broken bodies are a small price to pay for that 90 bucks a month.
