So your take is that union membership has decreased because people have been given a choice whether or not to be members.
Maybe you should dig a little deeper my good friend, and ask yourself why people are making that choice.
Or just play the blame game, it's working out great. SMH.
There was a time when the vast majority of American Workers where actively seeking to join a Union. Back in the early 70's just in my area we had Non-Union Clerks organize and became Teamsters when the Company offered a measly raise, all they had to do is sign a Union Card and go down to the Local Hall and get sworn in. Recently the Company decided in certain areas to get rid of their Office people and eliminate any future pension funding, did the Locals approach these potential members and try to get them to join...Big, Fat "
NO"... Maybe it wasn't worth their time or effort, maybe agreements where done decades ago to prevent any further organizing within that work group. There will always be that retaliation factor we all know of, these Corporations will crush any individual who becomes too Uppity and the rest of the sheep will do nothing. I remember last year when O'Brien had news conference about striking outside their headquarters in Washington, hardly any news agencies showed up, maybe they knew that there was never going to be a work stoppage and it wasn't worth their time or money. I was a member of the Teamsters for over 46 years and I personally seen it all..What we are seeing and going to see with this election and the previous "Summer of love" is what has happen to our society,
Money and
Egos are running any political decisions whether it is in the Union or in Washington DC..
Ok, we get it, you are in favor of illegal immigration, you think it's great for unions.
I just don't think most people would agree with you.
It has already started....The Entitlement and Welfare system is losing it's resources to support these families coming across the border, the participants of those benefits are starting to see their entitlements being cut. It will only go to a certain point before they start reacting and start to target these illegal immigrates, new gangs will be established. It is already happening in our Major Cities, soon coming to the suburbs, the (Trump Voting) Rural Areas will be OK...Most of their citizens are prepared for such an occurrence.
