Only rich people own restaurants. They probably don't pay enough taxes either.

Never in my 37 years as a union member did one penny of my union dues go to politicians.........more corporate propaganda

Obviously, abandoning responsibility doesn't take courage.

Just myself can I vouch for.... I am now 60....last election for the first time in my life I voted republican..........

Now the republicans are trying to eradicate one of the few voices the common working man has left.......
I will never vote republican again.........

Perhaps your particular union didn't support politicians, but others have.
