No it is the beginning of the end. Unions go away and it’s just some guys with sour grapes that will be fired and replaced with cheaper workers that require no benefits.

unions can still exist. the court didn't outlaw unions.

union membership is now voluntary.

the court just ruled government couldn't force workers to join a union and pay union dues against their will.

It amazes me that in todays world as an employee that you would trust the owner of a company to do "the right thing" and pay you a decent wage. You do know the first place any company looks to cut costs is labor...……..

Is that what you are saying ?

Sometimes people need to be saved from themselves.


In just 18 months we are more than half way to reenacting Nazi Germany and yet some people still cheer the guy who is taking their rights and freedoms away while taxing them into oblivion (while cutting taxes for the leaders of the movement).


Shakes head.

This would be their biggest fear because once they lose control of the wages they have no power left.

Nope. They deserve this. They are cheering for it and they absolutely deserve two scoops of it. By the time they figure out this wasn’t a win, they won’t be able to do anything about it. Please proceed.

the above statement by ted bear is the progressive mantra in a nutshell. progressives know better than we do about what choices we should make.

the arrogance is astounding.

You MAY be correct in many cases but what happens when a large number of formerly contributing employees to the unions decide to trade pennies for dollars and refuse to pay or drop out of the unions?? Can they continue to exist without the influx of the monies and/or can they continue to be a force to push for their covered workers once the union has shrunk say by 1/2 or so?? Also, will they have the influence they once had with politicians/political groups/agendas if they no longer have such numbers and "weight" behind them?

Oh so Koch is going to say “those poor employees need to be paid enough to send their kids to college” - or will they say “these guys will work for less, hire them and that gives our stockholders more money and makes us richer”. My money is definitely on the latter. Collective bargaining benefits everyone but Trump supporters tend to be less educated so of course they will see this as winning because Trump tells them it is.
