Isn't that just special? Unions are just so special and necessary. What would we do without them?

It frustrates me some that there was a big increase, but it frustrates me more that people elect anti-education folks to state legislatures and Congress, making it necessary for there to be a well-paid advocate for public education, teachers, and children."

Its our fault that we elect people who force them to elect crooks to lead their union. LOL

Absolutely right. Unions have long since outlived any usefulness, any positive effect they may have once had for workers. Now they are another master, another power block taking a chunk out of peoples money and distorting the political landscape.

Don't ever join a union, any union. Leave any union you may be a part of now. Whatever it costs you now, in the long run it will be more than worth it.

Meanwhile, 19%? That's an insult to every single person in the organization. Guess some pigs are more equal than others, than their union brethren.
