Re: Does This Make Union Employees Happier? Everytime any issue comes over with the Word "Union" in it you always get this political backlash of people who repeat the same thing over and over. Union = bad, Union workers = lazy, overpaid, Union management = corrupt
etc etc yadda yadda yadda.
Different story, same response. That's because it's a false political ideology. I surely hope one day these people learn the sheer depth of their mistake. -- "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini

I surely hope one day these people learn the sheer depth of their mistake. And every time something like this comes up we get this as well. Unions had their place 50-100yrs ago, when workers had no rights. That time is long gone. Unions are antiquated and need to go the way of the dodo.
And before you flap your gums, my wife's a federal employee. I could probably write a novella on how corrupt the unions are, especially in regards to some of the asinine, and completely inane, agreements they've made that really have no place in a union agreement. I will make 1 point, and is something even my wife thinks is a waste of taxpayers dollars. Federal employee that's stupid enough to get addicted to drugs or alcohol. The government has to keep their job open AND pay for their rehab. Nothing right about that regardless of what spin you put on it. |

On the other hand AT&T is free to "shop" elsewhere for labor like everyone else. |

 Z801 point 77Premium join:2009-08-31 Amerika | reply to Lesaonar Unions have their place now, but they must understand that labor is not a "my way or the highway" proposition. Globalization has forced the Unions as well as the employers to compete in the global marketplace. If the unions are not willing to compete, they will evaporate. |

| reply to Z80 No. The point of a Union was to Unite to stop the abuses of Companies. By Collective bargaining, they have a stronger position. If it wasn't for Unions, this country would still have slaves. -- "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini
