So you want the state to protect the union? How do you feel that should be handled?

I don't understand why you would want to join a job that is "unionized" if you hate unions, you have a choice right there! Don't take a unionized job! You can stand around with the illegal immigrants looking for "non union" work and show them how much work ethic and pride you have.

sorry to burst your bubble.
So to dispute me, you are claiming that there should have had black only busses (i.e. unionized shops) and then those busses for everyone.. (i.e. non unionized shops)

Do you see how retarded this argument is you're making?

How about gay marriage, clearly if you support it then you think gays should move to a state that allows gay marriage and shut the hell up if they live in a state that doesnt allow it right? This is how retarded your argument is, if you dont like it shut up and move on.. sorry but no, it doesnt work that way.

Which is exactly why right to work legislation is so important. It's time to continue neutering big labor, worker's rights come first.

There's no such thing as a unionized job, unions create nothing and that includes jobs.

So now its ok to you that people are forced to give up their own money to support causes they dont believe in? So you'd be fine with the state saying you have to give your money to a church as the condition of employment?

Your other comments did not say "unionized shop", they said "union STATES"

changing your argument as you are proven wrong, just keep it moving. or maybe you honestly didnt notice what you were typing.

The Republican Party understands the plight of the working class in the 1800's with industry taking advantage of child labor, and long working hours. An organized labor union was indeed required. The Republican party understands the need for a labor union. It's the currupt labor bosses that use union dues on political parties that the Republican's don't like. Joining a union should be by choice and ones dues should not go for political parties. It's the individuals choice of party that his dues should go toward.

Yes I did, in fact I pointed out how stupid it is.

Once AGAIN.

How do you compare benefits of a non unionized employee to a unionized employee if the law demands that you join a union as the condition of employment because its a unionized shop?

Think about the flaw in your argument, come on, its not difficult to comprehend that you cant compare WHAT DOESNT EXIST..
