He's actually done pretty well for the state of Wisconsin. Turned things around for the people there. Funny that you brought up RTW again, maybe you know of someone in Wisconsin that's been hurt by it since its passage? & what's your obsession with the Koch brothers? I've shown you before where they don't even make the top 50 list of political donors for the last 25 years but talk about them as if they are right up there with the banks & unions.

1) Okay Atomic...try to pay attention this time. What I said on 10/19 in Post #127 was:
"Any entity that relies on revenues to provide a product or service is hampered when that product or service is required by law to be provided for free. Eventually, you and your freeloading pals will force a local union to make the decision to disclaim interest in in a bargaining unit.
What you changed that to on 10/19 in Post #128 was:
"Your hypothetical of everyone leaving the union because it's free is laughable."
I never suggested that you and your freeloading pals would leave the union of your own accord. You're getting a free ride...why go anywhere? What I suggested was that when you and your freeloading pals got to be too much of a burden on the union...well, the union may exercise an option that would eliminate that burden.
2) What local am I? Given the way you tend to distort things, I just don't think that I'll provide you with that information. I've already given you a ballpark figure of what our local officers salary is. As far as commissions...no such thing here...in fact, the first time I've ever heard of commissions to local officers & staff was with the local 710 fiasco. Sounds like they were getting commissions based on how many members they represent. We don't do that here.
3) I won't be giving you any more examples of anything, Smurf, considering the manner in which you distort that which is provided to you. You're not looking for discussion, Smurf...you're simply a Troll.

Saw the Bluegrass Poll earlier today. A dead heat down there! Keep up the good work, RC!

The 710 fiasco was the first any of us had heard of commissions as well. Wouldn't be surprised if more locals do the same. They are able to keep that portion of their income hidden to some degree.
And I'm a little embarrassed for you guys, that you & your pals never could produce a single victim of RTW. I'm sure it wasn't for lack of trying. If you ever find one, look me up.

Funny you talking about cyberbullying, on the same day that Monica Lewinsky resurfaces in the news to talk about cyberbullying. You two have such parallel lives & tastes in men.

Wish the IBT would have put their full force ground game into winning us a better contract & letting us keep our company health plans.

Clinton inherited an economy that had been growing for over a decade when he took office. To his credit he didn't wage an all out jihad on capitalism the way hopey dopey has. Good contracts were easy then.
Today we have an anti-American, anti-capitalist commie successfully pillaging the benefit earnings of the working class, growing dependency & realigning our nations standing in the world. Demise is destiny under this regime & our losses will come in 5 year increments.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
I don't see why RTW has to be so hard to figure out. I believe in choice and every person should have the right to decide if they want to be a member or not.
Here's how it should work. The union provides a service. You can pay a monthly membership and have all services provided to you free of charge (think AAA) or you can choose not to be a member at which point if you need or want the services of the Union you will pay on an as needed basis.
File a grievance $20
Center representation for term $100
Panel representation for term $500
And so on.
These are random numbers I pulled from my arse.

Don't forget the wages and benefits of non union competing companies.

I wouldn't go that far.
Other than maybe let's say $250 every time a contract is negotiated on your behalf.
