Re: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THE UNIONS?
I am A union member
I worked very hard, went to school for four years and walked picket lines.
I respected the law and acted in accordance with correct picketing rules.
I was hit by an auto owned by the company that we were picketing.


I learned carpentry as a child in my fathers basement
and as an adult female, I joined The Carpenters Union who put me through tough training. If the Union did not exist here,
I probably would have never been able to fulfill the craft I enjoyed.

Re: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THE UNIONS?
What's happening is your rulers have decided it is time to phase out the middle class. The unions are just the only visible resistance at the moment, currently putting up a last fight in the moments before twilight for the rest of us.

But just keep watching Fox News and remain hypnotized until someone's privatized your utility company, and jacked the rates so high you can't pay to power your TV anymore.

Re: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THE UNIONS?
So I went to college and majored in art with a minor in anthropology. I was worried about a job so I went ahead and stayed in school and got a masters in anthropology and art history.

I graduated last Spring. Now I run a military historical museum for the federal government. I do didly squat besides make a few presentations and sign some paper work. I earn $62k a year with federal benefits.

My loans are no problem, just a little pocket change covers them. It helps that my wife makes $70k for the state of Virginia as an agency director. She went to college on loans and grants just like I did.

I drive a new SUV. My wife has a mercedes. We just bought a four bedroom victorian era home.

College is stupid though, isn't it.

The best way to show how college benefits you is to continue to succeed at your profession and love what you do...haters gonna hatecool2

Re: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THE UNIONS?
Corporations would happily pay their workers nothing if they could get away with it. Unions are necessary to counter corporate greed and other abuses like child labor. This country lived off of slave labor for many years. The modern form of slave labor is prison labor and shipping jobs overseas to the lowest bidder.
 Quoting: Instant Karma


Actually, Corporations wanted to pay, but when you had HOLLYWOOD pop up with Multi Million dollar salaries of its movie stars, what prevents other people that actually work more than a movie star from earning a million or more? no one blinks a eye when Tom Cruise makes 50 million plus a movie.

And you had free trade open up. opportunities to hire Chinese and Indian people

Then on American soil the huge influx of Hispanics from Mexico and their babies and children who took the wages, down, down, down, down in all the construction and farming industries

There you go. I doubt that Corporations were ever that evil as you are suggesting, its just a number of factors.

man, some of the comments in this thread are funny. People don't know that the history of Unions comes from people getting jobs by NOT being skilled at anything after the slavery days and those workers moving to the cities. They aren't all bad, but the origins are not truthfully spoken about...

Ive worked on some film sets that had Union workers and they make 4-500.00 a day and are so overstaffed they had the free time to hire in a masseuse so they can take turns getting massages. Think about the people out there who cant afford to take their kids to the movies because ticket are too expensive.
