Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire "Right to work" one step closer to reality in MN

I'm not a "member," you got that right.

More union pro illegal support and destroying the working middle class. No wonder unions despised by hard working Americans:

But it was Trumka�s positioning of the argument that really can bring a sea change to this and other progressive issues. Because his speech really focused on shared values, shared experience and shared goals. It was an outline of a movement. Here�s an excerpt:

At the heart of our strategy must be a workforce with world class skills and world class rights and trade policies that serve the interests of the American people. But today I also want to talk to you about what may seem like a strange subject�immigration�because it is patently clear that we cannot talk about our national workforce strategy unless we face head-on our own contradictions, hypocrisy and history on immigration.

The truth is that in a dynamic global economy in the 21st century, we simply cannot afford to have millions of hard-working people without legal protections, without meaningful access to higher education, shut off from the high-wage, high-productivity economy. It is just too costly to waste all that talent and strength and drive.

But immigration reform is not just an economic issue. The way we as a nation treat the immigrants among us is about more than economic strategy�it is about who we are as a nation.

My wife works for the state, court systems. I have no idea how a union fits into that setting.

The same as I don't understand how a union fits into ANY tax payer funded line of work.

It doesn't work!!

There is only so much money available to pay for these necessary state functions such as the judicial system, there is no room for a middle man there. It's a state job, and it WOULD be a very good job if it were not for the afscme. This organization hurts the employees, they take their money and rifle it directly into the liberal agenda and things like Scott Walker recall efforts.

Dues money is pumped straighy into the democratic party which inturn lobbies for tax dollars to be pumped into their voter base entitlements.

It's compounding failure!!

It's truly criminal and people should have a choice to not feed this evil liberal money pump.

go to the nearest jobsite you can that is union, ask any of the guys working there if they were forced into the union. Get back to me after you do dipshit

Cooper here are your Typical hard working skilled union workers:

Bully, bully, bully....your bullshitt is starting to show through with every post.

Because everybody doesn't have your communist views, you have to say their full of [bleep]?

Typical really.

'

I can see your stance on that, and I can agree to it on some levels. I agree that public sector unions are needing major overhauls, but i dont think they should be wiped completly off the map by stripping collective bargaining.

Even a web site dedicated to monthly Union corruption:

It depends on your meaning of the word "force". You have been so brainwashed, you can't think straight. Once upon a time unions did serve a meaningful purpose. Now? Bundlers for the democrat party, the union thug hierarchy and ok, a 15 minute break.

Hey Coop, show us your union tattoo.

More drunk and stoned union workers. Must take a lot of skill to down a 40 and smoke a blunt on a 15 minute break:

Im far from communist, but he's so far right its not even funny. There was no bully there, he really is an idiot and his ramblings make no sense at all, he just copy and pastes stuff and tries to twist it to fit his own skewed version of reality. But really, if his wife is as perfect a woman he says she is (4 languages, super model, multiple degrees, fashion designer, software designer) why would she take a minimum wage job? That doesnt strike you as fishy? lol cmon.

Again in your infinite ignorance, you;ve provided a non skilled union, not a trade union. Keep trying, eventually the blind sow finds an acorn.

You (the union guy) seem to be the one on here doing most of the name calling. Course...it ain't bulling though.

Oh, now if it doesn't fit his template, its a non-skilled union. This is better than the 243WSSM drivel posting.

And more union support of illegal workers' rights over American workers' rights. How shameful COOPER:

Huh? over 40% of union members vote independent or republican. A 15min break, in the morning, yea thats nice, its also law. As is a 30min lunch during an 8hour working day. I prefer the 40/hr on the check, 14.63/hr in the pension. Paid health insurence and low deductibles. Im quite happy with the 106,000 i made last year, and the 43,600 i put in my annuity. The contractor i worked for was very happy to because they made a killing on the project and had no problems because of the good union workers that knew thier job, and brought it in on time and under budget.

OH MY GOD!!!

What is in that damn union kool aid anyways???

Read my post again, Coworkers that are fortunate enough to not have their individual possitions locked in as unionized possitions.... MAKE A CHIT TON MORE MONEY!!!

I'm trying to tell you that the non union court clerks make more money than the union court clerks.

That is the truth!! Plus they don't pay dues!!! So they really make quite a lot more.

Plus they don't get emails and postal mail to their homes spewing the liberal union kool aid.

Why is it so hard to believe that in this case and many more cases like it, union is a very, very bad thing for employees.

Constructing military planes is not skilled labor?

What an idiot!!

Sure they have more skill than a union broom pusher like you Cooper . How much beer and dope do you consume at work Cooper? Is it in your precious union contract?

Read that:

They support legalizing the ones who are in this country, that means getting them to be tax payers and contributing to the country, they're not gonna leave on thier own accord, and rounding them all up would costs billions and billions of dollars. So the next best thing is to legalize them, and get them documented so they can contribute to the programs they benefit from, how can you be so ignorant to the facts? SHAME ON YOU RIBKA.
