Union Says Right-to-Work Laws = Slavery
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 20 Dec 2013 | John Semmens

Posted on 12/23/2013 10:08:03 AM PST by John Semmens

Michigan Teamsters Local No. 214 filed a lawsuit alleging that the State's right-to-work law constitutes an “unconstitutional reinstitution of slavery.”

“Unions are a worker's main protection against employer abuse and mistreatment,” union spokesman Peter Piddler maintained. “Abuse and mistreatment are the hallmarks of involuntary servitude. For the State to allow a person to work without becoming a member of a union opens the worker to abuse and mistreatment and is, therefore, an endorsement of slavery.”

“Slaves weren't allowed to form unions,” Piddler pointed out. “That was a crucial block to their attainment of full human rights. Unions compelling every worker to be enrolled as a member liberates workers from the virtual slavery that is every employer's ultimate objective.”

None of my paycheck goes to the knuckledraggers in the unions to get commie lib ‘RATS elected.

Yet part of your paycheck is usurped by the "Masters" thereby making you (and I) slaves!

Wow... “compelling” = “liberating”.

They actually say that.

Yup, CW-II’s probably in our future.

More of a 1776 than an 1861, in my opinion.

That’s true, but if you aren’t one of Holder’s people, then anything you do is racist.

Union shop laws sell workers into slavery to union bosses. Right to work laws free people to choose to whom they are enslaved. (In my case, I am enslaved to my wife.)

“unconstitutional reinstitution of slavery.”

So is working under Obama&CO you have to give all your money to the feds so they can give it to the slackers and other low life.

Peter Piddler sounds more like a medical condition than a name.

Nothing poses more threat to unions than individual bargaining. If I am allowed to market myself to a prospective employer as being twice as productive as the union worker, yet only seek 50% more in income, the union guy is out of a job. As it stands now, all I’m getting for being twice as productive is the exact same compensation as the guy who shows up drunk every day and tears up company machinery.
