forced unionisum
I am a member of a teamster union who is desperatly wanting to withdraw, but I work in a non right to work state. I have come to the realization that forced association to any organization is nothing more than legal confication of your freedoms and your financial security. These unions no longer have the best instrest of there members in mind no more than our goverments have have the best intrest of the people in mind. They are destroying buisness and prosparity and livlyhood of this entire nation. The pention funds are being paid for by the co and confiscated by the unions and trickled down to the union paying members with reductions and fees and restrictions. In the meantime the overseeers of this money have no accountability and have life long appointments. contracts are written but rarley enforced. you supposeably have a vote on issues but are intimidated or pursuaded to vote as told to. These unions have spent billions of our money on political campains for democrats . yet the pention funds are being depleated, or as they would say underfunded and now they are blaming that on the loss in the stock market and not their mismanagment of the funds that should be there.president Bush wanted the pention funds investigated or examinaned but the first order of buisness for president Oboma was to throw that out. no investigation into the pention funds were nessasary. The way I see it if unions were so great why would they need a card check. people would be knocking down there door to join. If unions were so good at managing everyones buisness why don't they run one.Instad of running everyone elses into the ground and raising the ranks of unemployment. The unions are making a beter living off the insecurity of the american worker. It is time for us to stand up and be strong enough to negotiate and navigate our own destiney and tell these fat cat union officials it is time for them to get out and join the ranks of the working people and get a real job.

I'm imrpseesd! You've managed the almost impossible.
RE: Forced Dues
Ever heard the comment "you don't know what you've got till it's gone"? As a member of a union I am guessing that you enjoy a relatively good living. I also am guessing that in your mind you think the company you work for would gladly be handing you what they are because they like you so much. I will say that unions have gotten away from what they were started for. I will say that there has been abuse. There are far too many individuals ruining what a union is meant to acheive by putting there own agendas in front of the memberships best interest. I do have to ask you though, what do you attempt to do about it. You say we all need to stand up to these unions. How about sticking together against these companies that only listen to you because you have a union to be your voice. The problem is many members sit back and complain at the lunch table and do absolutley nothing about it. I was in those shoes 4 years ago. Sitting at the table complaining about what the union does and doesn't do for me. I have become very involved and just this morning learned that I won the election for Vice President. I now have the ability to make sure that the people that have been left out are now heard. There is a flip side to this. I will also be challenging my membership to become more involved. I will be expecting people to read their contracts and working rules so that they have a much better understanding of the way things are supposed to be. I will be looking to people just like yourself to help repair the relationship between union leaders and the members they represent. Hopefully this makes you take a second to think about the union you belong to, all the efforts that people before us had to put in to get us what we have today, and maybe even what you can do to help yourself as well as the rest of your members.

does that intended for the unions or companies? To me it's obvious when the unions do wrongs, but when you think about what the companies do and are doing it's incredibally decietful.

To influence a man to believe in a just cause, for your own gain without believing the cause yourself, is evil at it's worst. Especially when its intended to gain power or wealth at everyones elses expense. Thats just rotten and almost unforgivable, yet millions are lead like cattle to the slaughter cheering on there own destruction. It's sad.
Jefferson's quote
Wow! So right! I think about this every time I realize I am helping to pay Obama to go out and be a campaigner for left-wing Democrats.
