Tough Sledding

Too true to be parody? Doug Bandow's Commission to Save Children. Also: Unions' dirty ballots. Inequality doesn't figure. Jackie Mason holds back. Plus much more.

(Page 4 of 13)

br> Re: Philip Klein's Union Blues : /p>

Those companies and people weak enough to be intimidated into unionizing deserve what they get. The unions can organize all the want but the end result will be the organ these aphids suck their sustenance from will whither and die.

p>I may be in a bad mood this morning so Mr. Klein will understand when my first impulse was to itch slap his coworkers who could so easily be cowed into wearing a shirt. If this were me I would put up a mirror to their faces and recite "mirror, mirror in your face who is too weak to defend their dignity in this place". br> -- Diamon Sforza br> Bartlett, Illinois /p>

As one who spent many years in business negotiating with unions I can say with a high degree of certainty that they are the most corrupt, venal and useless organizations in existence in the 21st century. By and large they exist, not to represent workers, but to support their leaders in their quest for riches and power. If the government ever prosecuted unions using the RICO statute, unions would disappear faster than the Mafia.

It seems to me a poor way for democrats to end the "culture of corruption" by splaying their figurative thighs and inviting the rapist to lie between them. But there are only two groups from whom Democrats get money: unions and Hollywood. They can ill afford to allow either to wither and die. And so, as they always have, democrats place politics before the rights and welfare of the represented.

p>Just wait until Hitlery Clinton takes off the gloves! Our rights will disappear faster than Arkansas state troopers who blew the whistle on Bubba. br> -- Jay Molyneaux
