Unions should be decimated and annihilated ASAP. Let the free market roll!

Well, hopefully the massive mistakes of the auto industry in Detroit are sinking in. The sooner unions are gone from our business model in the USA, the sooner we can be more competitive and productive.

I don't get why anyone would want to be a member of a national union. The unions pretend to protect the rights of the workers, but then they support illegal immigration. It doesn't make sense.

I wonder if the DNC will reconsider holding their convention in Denver?

There's no business bigger than the labor business.

I am stunned. I did not vote for him and will not vote for him. He is supposed to be pro-life. I just figured that to be political bs.

Well, I sure am surprised. Pleasantly! Looks like he decided to have a "Sister Souljah moment."

Baby! Music to my ears! Unions do nothing but create large cluster foxtrots.

The Governor did the right thing. Coloradans don't like what they see from the Democrats in Denver lurching to the Left.

Unions have long since outlived their initial purpose...

What was their intial purpose?

Competitive with whom?

The working conditions enjoyed by most Americans today are the result of gains made by organized labor. Remove unions from the workplace and watch those conditions deteriorate.
