What is the goal of the healthcare workers unions? To raise the cost of healthcare so high that it “forces” us into National Health care?

In my opinion, the goal of the healthcare workers unions is to increase the number of dues-paying members, to the benefit of the unions (and their leadership). That is their only goal. Run through the lists of union heads, their lieutenants, and their organizers, and identify those who are or who have ever been providers. They don't exist.

They are predators.

This is not to say we have fundamental problems with healthcare delivery in this country. But those problems have nothing to do with wages or working conditions. For the next decade at least, you will be rewarded as an employee in acute care with job security and significantly above average wages.

Yes, I'm sure nationalizing healthcare is a motivation for some, but it really comes down to dues, and whose account they are funnelled to.

So true— Capitalism works. I have little patience with the willfully blind who refuse to look and see the evidence around them.

We who still see it, though discouraged, must keep the fight for liberty going:

I still get people looking with glazed eyes at me when I make mention of the unions rule in bringing down the capitalistic system. And regarding the automakers. Nothing new here, simply the gun has finally been brought out to the head, that was long expected.
