Why? Because most unions also own half of their respective corporations so they will have their interests as well! We need to take away power from collective interests by turning over amendments like this!

Not True! but this is!
It takes two to screw us! Politicians to hold us down, so then the Corporations can do the screwing!!! Politicians need better rules to follow to prevent lobbying! We tax payers should fund important elections, so the best person wins and not the one with the most money!!! The movement needs at least these demands!!!!!!!!!!! Pass The Word!!! Lets Get It Together!!!
I'm a college student from Brazil ( Thank God higher education here is free and we still have opportunity to get scholarships at private Colleges, viva Lula!) and I'm watching with great concern the latest developments in relation to the world economy. It is sad to know that here in the USA while the honest people lose their jobs and their homes, thereby losing its future prospects, the government is concerned simply to save banks and financiers rather than helping those for whom they were elected. Things of the savage neoliberalism. But have faith. You started to wake up to realize the American dream they sold the term was actually a nightmare. Stand firm. All the oppressed of the world are with you. We strive for a better world. Where a man can enjoy the fruits of his labor. Another world is possible.Don't be afraid. The world are with you in this campaign.
A pity that this is true.
Most unions are nothing more than corporations themselves.
