One thing to know: Liberalism is a mental disorder...
There's no doubt now...
Theft By Union "Contract" Or Government "Enforcement."
Where does a union or an individual have the authority to tell me how to run MY.....YES, MY BUSINESS.
Because you work for me means I OWE you what other than wages we agree on ? Anything else is a perk or a privelege.....NOT A RIGHT.
Bring a union card drive into MY BUSINESS and the next thing that will occur is an INSTANT FREE, PERMANENT VACATION. Boycott's for "separation packages" will be met with police action.
Card check Bill: Bad Bill for union organizers
The penalties are a mere $20,000. A pittance for a mega-international corporation. "Bad" companies are the reason unions were firtst started so that workers could be treated fairly and with dignity and have safe working conditions The lives of a dozen families could be destroyed and very little monies paid in damages. Believe me, I know personally how a big company can destroy the average person and theri family. Civil rights legislations allows for $300,000 plus punitive damamges and attorney fees, etc. Shouldn't workers have the same protection as any other 'violation of ones rights.' There needs to be adequate appeal rights and access to Federal courts. Without this access the bill is definitely a pro-bad management bill. This can work both ways. a union that gets overly zealous and persuasive should be stopped by the law, also. If a company has gotten so bad that a union is even being talked about, it would not be difficult to organize and have one. If you are the few fortunate workers that have a great boss and company and can negotiate informally and fairly then unions are not needed. But management and ownership can change and often does and then the new owners aren't so 'nice." Workers should feel free to make that decision on their own. It is disruptive when only some belong and others don't. Recent rulings have limited representation to only union members. Once you have a union, there are two sides to decision. The Non-union member is an unrepresented 'third party' completely on the 'outside.' Not a good place to be. This bill needs hearings and some thought and rethinking. Its time Congress starts to 'dig in' and make "good law" and not "unread law." Linda Joy Adams (AFGE)

YouÂre on top of the game. Thkans for sharing.
Card check
There are good and evil on both sides of the fence. Should we rattle off the Union officials whom have been jailed on corruption charges in the last 20 years. There are laws, rules and measures in place that keeps a Union man's business private from Union and Owner goons alike. Currently under most organizing rules men are entitled to a private vote to determine their fate. in most union functions a secret ballot is used to determine most union business. I understand this would change under the strong arm card check.
