Are union members dense? Or do they just turn over the hen house to the foxes to let them empty their pockets? I read stuff like this and find I simply cannot understand anybody who defends unions! And this isn't unique to this one union. Name one and you will find something similar. Anyhow, to read more on this case, go to http://laborunionreport.com/2014/06...-in-order-to-hit-members-with-a-25-dues-hike/
Someone has to pay for the Official's Mercedes, million dollar houses, and women. They also need more money to give to Obama so he can put you on Obamacare in a little over two years from now when the union lose their exemptions. Hellooo
Biased news source. Not credible in any way. How about a source with objective reporting without all anti-union rhetoric injected into it.
Union leaders are accountable. First, they are elected to their positions at the international levels, and often at local and District Council levels. Plus, unions are the most regulated sector/interest in the US. While corporate dopes rely on mediocre to subpar leadership to run companies, and not having results show in the vast majority of times for the money spent on executive pay, and often relying on government for handouts, unions work on shoestring budgets for the betterment of workers and the country. And for the dues that are collected, the benefits are great for those who are union members. And even for the freeloaders from right to starve states. The investment returns for union dues for a worker are better than anything the stock market can offer, because one gets a voice at work.
Try not to confuse the poster with facts. They get their marching orders from the US Chamber of Commerce and the National Right-To-Work Foundation.
