Boycott Unions!

[Flash]

We should all boycott any Union made products and services if we have a choice.

The reason is that Union made products and services are usually poorer quality and more expensive than non union made.

As an example. Honda and Toyota make better vehicles in non Union plants in the US than the Big Three, which employ the despicable UAW,

The other reason, which is the most important, is that the Unions in the US are the cash cows for the Democrat Party, which has an agenda to destroy Liberty in the US.

What say you?

Is that why they are recalling so many non-union-made cars?

Union members are generally middle class. Non-union generally much lower paid. I guess conservatives hate the middle class, got it.

Unions are like any group it can be filled with corruption if the members let it. But Unions are a good thing for those who make a paycheck working for a big organization like a government or private business. Big business leaders and government leaders have lawyers who watch their backs and with Unions the working class folks have their lawyers who watch their backs. Individual workers cannot go in one at a time and negotiate for a raise and benefits but with a union, they can all at one time. Unions are a part of free enterprise and democracy.

I purchased Union made work boots and jogging shoes from an online clothing store five years later with a lot of use they are still in top quality condition. Chinese made ones I had in the past had to be replaced after just a little over a year. I got some really durable work jeans Union made as well.

I would agree but a lot of people really have little choice on joining a union.

That is why they should move to a Right to Work state, like Florida. We have thousands of people moving down here each week to get away from such things like that upnorth.

My wife is a retired school teacher. When she started teaching in the public schools she joined the teacher's union because the dues were cheap and they provided liability insurance. However, she quit the union when the assholes supported that idiot Democrat Jimmy Carter for President. Living in a Right to Work State allowed her to do it.

My patriotism points me to support union workers. But this is a troll thread.

Unions in 2023 MAGA for the middle class people who work at companies where the labor is organized.

Unions made 2023 the year of the strike. What will happen next?

The number of workers on strike nearly tripled this year.

[Mr Natural]

Yes!

Move to a Right to Work state where you have the right to work for less!

Dumb goober assholes.

 

[initforme]

I always support union workers.

 

[Mr Natural]

I always support union workers.

I was never in a Union but I was with a company that had one. Every time the union people got a raise, we so called professional staffers also got a bump up.

Go unions!

Go unions!

And when Ford and GM workers get a raise, so do Toyota and Honda workers. Because Honda and Toyota don't want their workers to form unions.

I said yesterday that last year unions scored major victories for the American Middle class. With Biden's help of course. UAW, Casino, Caregivers, UPS, Writers. Well the winning keeps on happening

Workers At The U.S.’s Largest Nuclear-Fuel Factory Plan To Unionize​

Amid growing demand at the factory assembling the uranium fuel rods that provide 10% of U.S. electricity, workers have some demands of their own.

This is South Carolina and Georgia. Why are people in red states forming unions? I thought workers were happy in red states?

This is a speech about the forgotten man. Written 140 years ago but is relevant today and describes those that support Trump and RFKjr. and also George Wallace and Bernie Sanders and Unions.

Sumner next described the nature and character of the Forgotten Man.

He is the simple, honest laborer, ready to earn his living by productive work. We pass him by because he is independent, self-supporting, and asks no favors. He does not appeal to the emotions or excite the sentiments. He only wants to make a contract and fulfill it, with respect on both sides and favor on neither side. You will find him hard at work because he has a great many to support. Nature has done a great deal for him in giving him a fertile soil and an excellent climate and he wonders why it is that, after all, his scale of comfort is so moderate. He has to get out of the soil enough to pay all his taxes, and that means the cost of all the jobs and the fund for all the plunder.

Sumner wasn't finished.

Such is the Forgotten Man. He works, he votes, generally he prays—but he always pays—yes, above all, he pays. He does not want an office; his name never gets into the newspaper except when he gets married or dies. He keeps production going on. He contributes to the strength of parties. He is flattered before election. He is strongly patriotic. He is wanted, whenever, in his little circle, there is work to be done or counsel to be given. He may grumble some occasionally to his wife and family, but he does not frequent the grocery or talk politics at the tavern. Consequently, he is forgotten.


Sumner continued with his description of the Forgotten Man.

He is a commonplace man. He gives no trouble. He excites no admiration. He is not in any way a hero (like a popular orator); or a problem (like tramps and outcasts); nor notorious (like criminals); nor an object of sentiment (like the poor and weak); nor a burden (like paupers and loafers); nor an object out of which social capital may be made (like the beneficiaries of church and state charities); nor an object for charitable aid and protection (like animals treated with cruelty); nor the object of a job (like the ignorant and illiterate); nor one over whom sentimental economists and statesmen can parade their fine sentiments (like inefficient workmen and shiftless artisans). Therefore, he is forgotten. All the burdens fall on him, or on her, for it is time to remember that the Forgotten Man is not seldom a woman.


Sumner properly understood that there were as many forgotten women in America as men. He then closed things out with these words.

What the Forgotten Man really wants is true liberty. What the Forgotten Man needs, therefore, is that we come to a clearer understanding of liberty and to a more complete realization of it. Every step which we win in liberty will set the Forgotten Man free from some of his burdens and allow him to use his powers for himself and for the commonwealth.

Sumner's words, written over 140 years ago, would echo with meaning to vast segments of the American public today if a publisher had the temerity—and the insight—to republish Sumner's essay. The mass public will see themselves in his work, even if today's ruling elites will not.

How did he get that land? It's important to know. I would need to know the forgotten man's life story. Was he born into privilege?

I'm a forgotten man. Because I take care of myself. But I consider myself fortunate I don't need help and can be "forgotten".

Just don't forget to send me my social security checks and medicare.

Did you see Tennessee auto workers joined the uaw? They saw what unions did for auto workers in Detroit last year with Biden’s support. Next stop Alabama
