Participant25% is in the bag. That said….
Ravinos Great posts! CA Renter well said. I am seeing less ignorant Union bashing lately. It seems that the never ending parade of jobless stats is starting to sink into the most anti-union heads. We need jobs everyone knows that, but more are starting to look around and wonder where the GOOD jobs went and where and how they’ll come back; that leads them to manufacturing.
Ravinos your point about Germany’s continued success while having large and powerful unions is excellent. Unions demanding that workers share in the wealth of a countries output is a solid and proven, workable formula and neccessity.
Over at Mish’s site there is a great discussion on this topic. Mish’s regular posters rarely disagree with him but they are overwhelmingly disagreeing on the anti-union stance.

You’d have to be an ostrich at this point to still think that workers in this country will ever be willingly given a fair shake by the corporate elite. Millions now see their part of the American dream sliding away while CEOs wages are actually still GOING UP! They will steal labor as cheap as they can get it and somehow have managed to get a majority of Americans to side with THEM in a anti-union stand.
We have two opposing sides, workers and corporate elite, historical enemies. One side has managed to convince the other side to drop his weapons without the other even realizing it. They manipulate the simple minded and have achieved a great victory.
For the Elite it’s been war, they want it all and good times or bad times they make damn sure they get “theirs”. For workers it’s been a case of divided and conquered and two decades of stagnant wages (wow aren’t we shrewd?).
Today they fire workers in the hundreds of thousands EVERY MONTH and at the same time shower themselves with tax payer bailout dollars.
We get pink slips they get tax payer backed multi-million dollar bonuses. And in the world’s best example of shifting blame/anger have focused America’s anger on unions and away from themselves.Only just now are people waking up and seeing how much this ignorance is costing the middle class and poor.
Nothing is perfect in this world and that includes unions, but they are our biggest weapon in the battle of “us against them”. Unless you don’t believe we are in a battle (and losing hard)?
