It's hilarious how people expect a university-style bibliography and reference set for every post on this forum. Once it's posted, someone complains how it's bullcrap, and posts their own...
LOL! This is exactly why leftists are so stupid, naive and ill informed!This is a quote from that wiki editorial (no, wikipedia is not an authoritive source of any information)Quote:

Pretty much supports what I stated, not what you are claiming.Quote:
Although much smaller compared to their peak membership in the 1950s, American unions remain an important political factor, both through mobilization of their own memberships and through coalitions with like-minded activist organizations around issues such as immigrant rights, trade policy, health care, and living wage campaigns.
Did you not happen to notice that information on these wiki commentaries lack any support?Quote:http://inequality.org/centralized-la...ts-in-finland/ [/QUOTE]Let's see now, we have an editorial opinion of some pro-labor mafia guy from NJ who has immigrated to Australia telling us about how great labor unions are in Finland.Quote:

No wonder leftists are so screwed in the head with how they think.
It would be nice if we had some reference as to what you are complaining about.Quote:

It's like one can't have an original thought or a view from personal history.Quote:

I'd rather read someones actual thought process than be referenced to someone elses.
Another leftist source **
news.release/union2.nr0.htm
** It must be leftist because it doesn't agree with Republican, Koch Brothers supported crap to blame the Unions. The truth is the Unions are steadily declining, wages are falling and economy is failing. So it must be due to those 11 % union workers. BTW , I've never been a card carrying union member. I do believe in the unions, along with right to work. It's a kind of non- government check and balance.
Does syndicated know you have decided to be his mouthpiece?Quote:

You really can be ridiculous at times. Agreeing with someone doesn't mean mouthpiece. I think Syndicated does ok by himself. If you return to your post #95 you seemed confused or more probably, defensive. So I made what I understood as a reference so you might walk in enlightenment. You may tithe.Quote:

If we had them would we vote for people we don't like?
Roseanne Barr is running as a 3rd party candidate in 14 states I heard. There's your other choice! LMAO

Sheesh... what has gotten into folks heads? They really think their vote does not matter. Fact is... BHO's crowd is probably pushing that attitude, so they can keep you away from the poles and win. Do you REALLY want BHO in the WH for the next 4 years? Do you REALLY think your not voting will send a message? Please give me REAL answers to these questions... that is, unless you are part of the volunteer crowd on BHO's staff trying to get conservatives to not vote at all... Are you?
Weren't the same allegations swirling around bush in 04? Remember Swift Boat Veterans for Truth? It's the same garbage every 4 years.
And no I will not provide a half baked, obscure blog as a reference.
