My question to lurking pro-labor DUmmies (but I repeat myself)
« on: September 25, 2011, 11:14:26 AM »
I see avatars and posts by the score there about "solidarity," "union YES," and a bunch of other shit, but I have NEVER, EVER seen a post with anything resembling the following content:

"A group of union workers sought a meeting with management to discuss a novel production method that promises to reduce costs and raise worker productivity."

Or

"A union worker made a critical innovation that creates an entirely new product offering."

Why is that? Why is organized labor only interested in taking from a corporation? Isn't that what you accuse management of doing?

When you earn an MBA, you learn from experts how to manage corporate growth. What do unions teach you about corporate growth, other than how to strike and be violent until you get your share of it?

Is it because you are too stupid and lazy to participate in the growth and management of an organization?

I actually think that's the answer, and when I see pictures of Chicago labor goons, I become more certain that's the answer.

a certain percentage of DU is depressed and has other mental issues.

They love unions because they share the same mentality, that they are owed just for the fact that their moms didn't abort them.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Freep, have you seen the pics of some of them?  Maybe they have a point on that.

Not to mention avatars of Karl Marx, Che, the female version of Che, and an upside down American flag. BTW lurking DUmbasses, I thought that would change after you elected the Kenyan?
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

DUmmies are pro-union because unions don't penalize incompetence.

In fact, unions reward laziness and incompetence. Music to democrat ears.

Recently, teachers got together to slap themselves on the back and tell eachother how great they are. In the midst of this was the same old meme, "Pay teachers MORE for better education!!!!!" (Labor bullshit)


Well, how do they do where I live?  Pretty good, considering.




Starting Salary: $35,760
Average Salary: $59,825


Not bad for a 9 month job, retirement at 59...ect....ect......

With recent budget issues, the education budget has come into question - luckily strong unions and interest in education at a national and state level looks to keep this a secure place to be in any environment.

Oxymoron much?

The median income for a household in the county was $31,924, and the median income for a family was $41,010. Males had a median income of $34,137 versus $25,393 for females. The per capita income for the county was $17,517. About 12.20% of families and 19.80% of the population were below the poverty line, including 23.80% of those under age 18 and 7.30% of those age 65 or over.

Sounds.....fair?



“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

        -- Marcus Tullius Cicero, 55 BC (106-43 BC)

Unions, like all other aspects of liberalism, have nothing to do with improving the life of workers or consumers; they're just one more means for punishing those who have had a better life.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."
