yes it does.

unions are not necessary.

they were back when they started, when companies treated factory workers like slaves.

nowadays workers are protected by law from these things. the government has grown. now we have osha and the dept of labor.

the only reason for unions now is money.

the money they get from worker's paychecks before the workers even see it, money and benefits that unions EXTORT from companies with their "collective bargaining power" (ie. do what we say or we'll strike"), and the portion of that money the unions take that gets automatically funneled to the democratic party.

they had a place 100 years ago, now the benefits of unions are almost non existent. as rockhound pointed out, unions have crippled the big three.

I am anti union because of my own personal experiences and interactions with union types, and I think it's high time we send these thugs packing.

and guess how I think we should deal with union "toughs" that try and intimidate people......
