What's your point, jillian?
They are H Y P O C R I T E S (and that is one of their only finer characteristics).
And yet 4 pages in and not one of you has been able to even state WHY they are hypocrites.
Here is a hint for you, what you are looking at is EXACTLY why unions are crap today. Those people do not want to be part of a union and a union offers them NOTHING yet, for some unexplainable reason, they are FORCED to be in one and pay for the services they are not receiving.
The only hypocrites here are the lefties that want to scream at the top of their lungs that they want the 'right' to collective bargaining all while ensuring that you have NO RIGHT WHATSOEVER. What the left actually wants is the obligation to participate in the funding of collective bargaining. It is not a 'right' if you are forced to patronize a system that you do not want to be a part of.
