Strange. What's going on with unions these days? The economy isn't exactly humming along.

I realize unions may FEEL emboldened by Obama's win, but they are actually screwing over the little guy in more ways than one.

An unemployed union member is in no better shape than an unemployed non-union member.

And that hurts EVERYONE.

Dick Trumpka has to realze that his 600K/yr salary depends on union dues flowing freely.

No union dues paying members, the less gravy for him.

Trumka has a glorious future in mind for us:

“Syndicalism is a type of economic system proposed as a replacement for capitalism and an alternative to state socialism, which uses Confederations of collectivised trade unions or industrial unions. It is a form of socialist economic corporatism that advocates interest aggregation of multiple non-competitive categorised units to negotiate and manage an economy.”
