Free Choice Act? 44 Newspapers Oppose This Union Deception

[mcmick]

Those who have read George Orwell’s chilling novel, 1984, in which slogans like “education is slavery” are part of the brainwashing propaganda of the Ministry of Truth (MINITRUE), would appreciate the even worse deception of Big Labor-the owners and masters of today’s Democrat Party.

Big Labor wants to take away the secret ballot from workers everywhere, so they can use thug tactics into intimidating workers to sign a card on the spot to accept a union.

The deception comes from calling this un-American bill, The Employee Free Choice Act-EFCA

Public employees unions have grown into one of the most powerful and intimidating and negative forces in the United States because all levels of government have become job factories to repay Democrats with votes.

The private sector, however, has seen union membership drop off by millions, who have learned that unions do not exist for the welfare of 300 million consumers nor for 156 million workers but do exist for the several million remaining union members and their many corrupt leaders, too many of whom, have felony records for corruption, thug tactics, stealing funds while living like kings.

Hopefully Americans in large numbers will let their representatives know how outrageous it would be for Democrats to make EFCA a law.

A rep for you.
Unions had their day and place, but no longer. They've done nothing but drive our economy into the ground, ruin our education system, and introduce wholescale corruption into politics.

Here we have it again. Conservatives doing everything that they can to damage the working man. Union membership is down to an alltime low, and the wages of the working man are stagnate or worse. Could there possibly be a corelation? Time for a resurgance of unions, time for laws that keep manufacturing in this nation, instead of rewarding those that offshore jobs.

Why are they trying to do away with the "secret ballot" is there a reasonable answer to this question? Or just DU bullshit?

 

[garyd]

The latter

With respect ............ go spend some time in a Toyota or Honda plant, then rethink things and update your old rocks.

You can bet if this passes, I will do my best to not purchase any goods or hire any services from union ran industries.

 

[Toro]

This is a ridiculous policy.

If secret ballots are good enough to elect a President, they are good enough to certify a union.

Just BUMPing Willow's question, which I'd like to hear you answer...

Well get ready for it, because Obama made it a campaign promise. Just more of his FDR "let's prolong the depression" socialist agenda.

Ain't it great? Every company can now be General Motors where the union leaders have their own 37 million dollar golf course subsidized by the American taxpayer...

it's gonna be a miserable four years.

 

[Old Rocks]

it's gonna be a miserable four years.

LOL! It surely will be for all of you should Obama's policies turn out successful. But it will be a miserable for Republicans in any case. For the present economic debacle is of their creation, and most Americans know it. And should it slide into a Depression, it will not be known as Obama's Depression, but Bush's. More generally known as the Second Great Republican Depression.

I think that even without this, unions are going to gain a in membership. We have seen far too much of the management getting continual huge raises and bonuses while the man on the floor gets pink slips and replacement by low priced "temps". Long past time for a major change.

Hopefully only two. If the Democrats overreach (they will), and the house Republicans can get their shit together (there is hope after the house drilling sit-in this summer and their opposition to the bailouts), and history repeats itself (it usually does), then the Republicans can retake the house in 2010.

Obama wants to follow FDR's policies that prolonged the first depression:

Well, "miserable" is a few steps up from the past eight years.

 

[WillowTree]

I doubt that very seriously..

 

[tigerbob]

Well, "miserable" is a few steps up from the past eight years.

Have you really been miserable for 8 years?

 

[AllieBaba]

No. Apparently nobody remembers Jimmy Carter's presidency, when things were a hundred times worse.

People have gotten so soft and content they have nothing better to do but whine about the imaginary problems of other people...while they sip their microbrews and poke at their computers.
