Are they planning to skim union dues from unemployment checks?
If the unemployed go on strike, does that mean they go to work?
I wanted to join, BUT I COULDN”T AFFORD THE DUES!
How do they pay dues?
When they get a job, wouldn’t you drop out because you aren’t unemployed anymore?
Can this be more stupid?
Another Shake Down of those willing to work...extortion in excess. Anything but successful this "Making Jobs" during Obama's 1st and second year in office in the form of Shovel Ready Jobs...mainly for union workers...bailout or pay back? Now Chinese/American companies have taken over the refurbishment of some US infrastructure i.e., shovel ready jobs....This Union extortion is just another 'protest' against Capitalism lead by the same Union organizers who have organized the other protests...unrest is the engine with revolution the goal and Welfare/slavery the end.
So when they strike does that mean they’ll go out and find a job?
Just the return of an old idea that refuses to die. It’s Father Coughlin’s March of the Unemployed and Martin Luther King’s Poor People’s March on Washington all over again. Just enlisting the downtrodden for political purposes.
United brotherhood of deadbeat liberals.
The Unions are looking for some cannon fodder for their Occupy Wall Street movement.
Unemployed can pay dues out of unemployment benefits.
Blacks can pay dues out of welfare checks.
Inmates can pay dues out of work stipend.
Detroit can pay dues out of salvage.
California can have an illegal worker tax to pay dues.
DC can have a dumbass tax to pay dues.
Its a start and sounds pretty good to me.
Why not?
It's pocket money to the FedGov.
Print some more Baraqqi/Bernanke/Geithner mini-bucks.
I read about it a while ago. They’d do more good organizing community gardens (work to grow your own food), childcare coops (organize childcare for free while others look for work) and other “community” activities that would actually do some good. Instead, they are more like OWS than anything else.
“It’s pocket money to the FedGov.”
And, as always, not even their pockets.
Where do I sign up under several different names? Sarcasm and irony. We are married and unemployed.
