Jeff Daniels sez: " Move your business to Michigan...where the unions will kill it and rape its bones"

Paulette Silverson has taught children the ABCs, shapes, colors, and more in the 12 years she has operated her privately owned and operated in-home day care business, Wonder Care.
Yet, it was the Brighton woman who learned a new lesson when the state told her she is a government employee and union member — statuses she said she did not want and did not know was possible.
"I was not aware of anything going on until I received a letter in the mail a year ago last December, which said, 'Welcome to the (United Auto Workers). You are now a union member,' " Silverson said. "How can I be a union member? I'm not employed by anyone. I'm self-employed. Don't you need to be an employee of someone to become organized into a union?"

I am so sickened I can't even express without being banned how I feel about this.
This is why I think unions should be forced to pass their own collection plate around.
Forced association by the government as opposed to freedom to peacefully assemble.
Jeff Daniels sez: " Move your business to Michigan...where the unions will kill it and rape its bones"
Totally disguised, I live in Michigan. Most people don’t have the money to get a lawyer and fight the government. After all, the government HAS all our money. I’m sick of this.

dittos . . .
Involuntary servitude. Refuse to pay the dues and shoot anyone who shows up to enforce it. Make sure you have plenty of friends should the Union decide to bring theirs.
If you would like to be added or dropped from the Michigan ping list, please freepmail me.
However, in December 2008, Silverson and Clark each received a letter from the Child Care Council informing them that, beginning in January 2009, a 1.15 percent union dues/service fee will be deducted from the subsidy they receive from the state. Those in-home day care providers who do not receive subsidiary payments from the state pay no dues to the union.
So if you're a day care provider and this affects you, you have two options: Raise your rate to cover the loss of income from the dues, or stop taking the subsidy.
Except the state is taking their dues out of the subsidy the state is giving the provider. She can’t possibly withhold dues payments.
The subsidies are paid by the state for people who can’t afford the full amount of daycare, on a case by case basis. A single mom working a full time job but can’t afford the full price will still pay a part, and the state pays the rest, kind of like food stamps in a way. She is not getting money just to be in business, she gets (X) amount per week as a licensed day care provider in Michigan no matter who comes through the door.
I bet you even money if she started refusing kids on the basis of the subsidies the state will intercede and claim some form of discrimination now.
Another example of the effective administration of Granholm- the Governor of Michigan.
This should have been stopped by the Attorney General of Michigan at the first whif.
Don’t worry. Jeffery Fieger will start a class action suit for all these people. He helps the little people. /s/
I’ll tell you what: I’m opening a day-care. Then the union can get the state to remodel my kitchen and redecorate my family room - my whole house in fact. My working condiditons need to be vastly improved and updated to reflect the 21st century sensibility. I’m giving my boss 2 weeks notice, then I’m hanging out my shingle as a day care provider.
