Just a minor detail about the union issue.

I understand the hesitancy to support union labor, but remember please that China is a communist nation, with no votes.

There are over a billion communists in China, making an increasing amount, of the stuff Americans buy.

Remember you do not do “better” buying something from Communists, then you do buying from a union.

Just a small point. Thanks for your post.

Buy American.

They're both the same. Both would like to communize America. The only difference is the unions want to charge Americans more for their products (so they have more funds to destroy us from within).

No. No buying union. It's as self defeating as buying from China. It's best to avoid them both if possible.

six of one, half dozen of the other. Both believe in coercion. I should try to avoid both.

That’s one of those things that always cracks me up. People who won’t buy any stinkin union products turn right around and buy from a nation where everyone is basically unionized.

You really can’t escape buying union products and anyone who says they do is an idiot or a liar. If you buy a non union made Toyota, you’re buying a car full of union made parts. (I worked in a union shop and made Toyota parts) Our basic resources are pretty much all union products. The guys who mine ore or coal are pretty much all unionized. The oil industry has lots of union people involved.

There is also the fact that not all union members are flaming liberals. I’ve got lots of union neighbors who are solid tea party conservatives. Polling showed that some 40% of Michigan union members supported the RTW law and there were union members heavily involved in pushing for the law. Its also important to note that large companies often prefer to deal with a union rather than hundreds or thousands of individuals.

When it comes right down to it, public sector unions are the ones doing the most damage and should be completely eliminated.
