(7,024 posts)bash "liberals" and how they are taking our rights away and how "I'll be damned if I pay a penalty for failing to file for Obama care etc.. All this bullshit and more. Several times in the last few months I have argued that if they think liberals are that bad then move on to some trade that is non union or something else.
This article above should be posted in every damn unionized break room in America because folks its coming and ...the big push started with that idiot GW and I must say that President Obama fell back on his word when he vowed to walk the picket line with workers demanding fair treatment when Wisconsin was about to take away their bargaining rights...
So what does this reply have to do with this post. Well it shows that we have one hell of a battle ahead of us for maintaining our union bargaining rights...In my argument I have noted that anyone. Anyone that is a union member, a dues paying card member that will walk into a voting booth and vote those rights away does not deserve the privilege of carrying that union card and being a member of a bargaining unit that works to get them that livable wage they are earning. If they are willing to vote away what their Fathers and Grandfathers (and many cases Great Grandfathers ) fought for and laid their lives on the line so that us Union members of today still have those bargaining rights to earn, that livable wage.then no they should not belong to our union. A well built house has to be maintained. If termites attack that house they have to be dealt with or that house will crumble. So we have to stand up to issues such as this when a group conservative Judges(in ths case a small majority (2) take one more step forward in trying to destroy us as a bargaining unit...We have the right to work in Wisc,IN,and Ohio..So what would you expect if we should have a Republican President and Republican Majority in both Houses?..Could it be the end of unions with a national right to work law? So if you work with or know that young guy that insists that "liberals" are the bad guys remind them voting for the other guy is voting those livable wages away.
Excuse me that was 2 Judges giving way to the rights of workers being jepodized.
