shortsighted and discriminative? What? You just sunk to a new low. So you really don't care about the negotiating process being fair do you? You just want to see the DNC hang on to all that cash right?

I never claimed non-union jobs weren't gong overseas did I? However, unions have played a role in the manufacturing sectors which have had traditionally heavy union participation.

I know liberals never accept accountability so that you continue your denials are of no surprise.

Pointing out the truth isn't nice.

Comparing the WI legislative process to Japanese internement camps......yeah, talk about intellectual dishonesty.

Hitler would have agreed, Mussolini would have too. But they would have because unions were their political enemies. I couldn't. After all, I see middle class written all over every union member.

An agency doesn't need to be created. Referenda are placed on ballots all the time.

Exactly. No doubt the vitreol show by the pro-union communists in these threads shows just how desperate they are to keep that unequal power in their favor. They know if they cannot cheat, this time via union membership dues money laundering, they cannot win and peddle influence at the state or federal levels.

I think you're smart enough to avoid points that don't look reflect well and support your arguments. So, you make adjustments on the go. And, unions played as much role in sending jobs overseas as did non-union Americans. But you must point finger in only ONE direction because you need that adjustment.

And don't worry about accountability. It isn't a difficult word to say or spell. Seeing it in action, however, is a whole other issue.

Well... they're getting quite desperate. They're in a no-win situation of their own making, they don't like the realization that they've screwed themselves, so they're lashing out.
