So the IUPAT's mission statement says they want "to improve the lives of children," and that, "our children are not only our most precious resource, but also the key to a prosperous future."

If that were true, then why are they supporting the pro-abort candidate, John Kerry? I'd bet the reality is that a good number of these union goons agree with Kerry's pro-abort stance.

Unions have outlived their usefullness long ago. What they have become is a powerfull leftist/ activist lobby, supporting idiotic causes like greenpeace, enviromentalism, and politics. Members don't even have control over what the union bosses support. Not every member, forced to pay dues, agrees with that the union is doing with their dues.
I for one, lobby to make it illegal in anyway to endorse any political party, or any activist group. Those dues belong to the membership, and should be used only for the membership

We are talking big money here, which could easly go to member paying for their own health care plans.

This is what everyone who is a union member, or forced to be one should be lobbying.

The problem is these idiot democrats haven't a clue what the union really does, and are instead sucked into this lefty La-La land pipe dream.

"our children are not only our most precious resource, but also the key to a prosperous future."

A resource to be used and exploited, that is. It seems that the same people who insist that they do things "for the children" are the most vocal supporters of abortion. Well, when children are considered resources, the ones who are not conceived for a specific purpose are expendable. Abortion is simply prenatal "human resource management".

Brave New World of the union thug caste.
