These union bosses are shaving paychecks and getting rich off the backs of the working poor. This movement must call out all forms of slavery whether they are Democrat of Republican run.
There is no problem with private sector unions operating in a free market. Each side of the negotiating table attempts to get the best possible deal for itself and, optimally, a reasonable middle ground is reached. The problem lies with public sector and quasi public sector unions (unions whose members work almost exclusively on projects funded primarily with taxpayer dollars) who are negotiating solely with the government (which gladly accepts contribution and support) but has no skin in the game, negotiating with taxpayer money.
Shaving Paychecks?? Who and where? This i would like to know. What evidence do you have to support this?
Union Dues are a ripoff of working class money to rich union bosses.
Dues to the Tea Party or Republican Party are a rip-off to common citizens so that the Rich Leaders can enjoy a luxurious lifestyle. Isn't it nice to have black and white answers to everything? Makes you feel nice and secure. Dogma does that. You no longer need to investigate, reflect, think. How nice.
Unions have played a part in kicking the can down the road. A lot of the jobs that union labor hold, could have been automated, and we would currently have higher unemployment, which I think is a good thing. It would force us to change our system.
