They Warned Us…
By Mitch Berg
…. that if we voted GOP, workers would get gouged and see their take-home pay drop while there plutocratic overlords enrich themselves with the fruits of their labor.

SEIU is famous for these hit-and-run tactics. Promise workers the world, and deliver them nothing. This encourages members to run against “the leadership”, which results in strong-arm tactics. The purple-shirted SEIU thugs aren’t there for the Tea Party, they keep the membership in line. The SEIU is the perfect example of the union as a protection racket.
Andy Stern must have known going in that a union with members who do unskilled labor and are uneducated, and who may be in the country illegally, are easily dominated. The SEIU does not empower its members, it empowers its leadership.
Stern is no longer president of SEIU, but his hand-picked successor is. Stern controls the union from behind the scenes. If the SEIU didn’t contribute large amounts of money and votes to the dems, its leadership would be in jail.

Today’s Slave Masters rally under a Blue flag, while their overseers wave the purple and yellow.

Like the SLPC and many many other organizations, they exist primarily to raise money, which is then used to employ the leadership (with good pay and limited amount of work) and take them to fun “conferences” in nice locations.

What strikes me is the level of thinking–or lack thereof–that is required for someone to think that by unionizing, somehow the families of her neighbors and/or Medicare/Medicaid are going to get more resources to devote to the care of their loved ones. Say what?

Union logic tells you that it is better to have 10 union guys making $20/hr than 100 non-union guys making $10/hr. It’s not even a secret that unions get their market salary+ by freezing workers out of jobs.
What? You thought their market salary+ came by reducing management wages and decreasing dividends?
