Then why do govt. employees need a union? Even though the President who made unions legal (FDR) specifically said that govt. employees work for the people of the United States and should never be unionized?
If it's all about the bad and evil businessman making people work for "slave wages", and the govt. stepped in and made laws to allow unions...then WHY do my taxes go to pay unions in govt.?
And I guess all of you forget that unions are owned by the mafia. I live in Vegas...and back in the days before banks would do business with a casino, this whole town was funded off the backs of union workers money.
They referred to unions as "The Mob Bank".
And I can't help but wonder how some of the people in this thread keep THINKING that employees are "building" this country if those employees can't get a job.
