POLL: Union Related Forum On Conservative Cave?
« on: August 17, 2011, 02:28:13 PM »
Just a preliminary canvas of the membership here. No doubt the unions play a big part in American politics.
What they were almost a century ago is one thing, what they are today is another.
IMHO I feel the union presence in current politics deserves its own forum on Conservative Cave.
This poll is just to float the question among the membership to see if there is sufficient sentiment to warrant asking the mods to consider adding a new forum.

Yea or nay?

Yes, and if we don't get one, we stage a walk-out.

No. This is the CONSERVATIVE Cave. Unions are NOT conservatives.

They don't deserve the extra attention.  That's what GD and Politics is for.

Seems to me to be a barrel full of fish just begging to be shot.

I agree.  The military, OTOH, does.

I thought the poll question was rhetorical.

Yes. To show their thuggery.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

I don't think there is enough Union news to justify a new forum.

All I know is that unions are to blame for a ton of economic misery, some of which has touched me personally.  I loathe, hate and despise them.

Sorry, just the thought of unions and seeing or hearing the word gets me riled.

The unions, academia, mainstream media, anti-war protesters, race hustlers, hippies, and others have all blurred together into an indistinguishable red mass to me.  I vote that they don't need a separate forum.

I would add the progressive socialists democratixs to that list.   It ain't yer daddy's democrat party any more,  due in part to the socialists in the labor movement.  It is in the history and blood of the 'true believers' the rest of most union's  membership are pretty much ignorant of, or simply ignore, the socialist influence to get the bucks and bennys.  ( Hey wouldn't that make them greedy money gurbbers? ) :hammer:

Union related articles fall into one of several forums we have: Political, Mind Numbing Stupidity, Economics.  However, if we ever have a forum dedicated to crimes and criminals, then the unions would fit there also.
