>People that feel they need to organize to get anything are unmotivated, irresponsible slackers. I've never been in a union.

I've never been a member of a union either, but I've certainly appreciated the 40 hour work week and overtime pay.

These ridiculous laws such as 8 hour-day, 40 hour week, etc., should be repealed. If people want to work 12 hour days for some scrooge type employer, let them choose to do so.

How many decades ago was that accomplished by unions? They like to talk about how they got child labor laws, too. But that was nearly a century ago. I am talking about the here and now. The Democrat party used to stand for something good and honorable... a long, long time ago. Both organizations are putrid cesspools now.
