Or, as I like to say:

Unions can ONLY!!!! exist because of government force applied selectively against private property owners (evil rich people),

ALL UNIONS REPRESENT GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED THEFT OF PRIVATE PROPERTY FOR THE PURPOSE OF BUYING DEMOCRAT VOTES.

I expect ignorance of this fact elsewhere, but here on FR??????????????????????

Here’s how the purely evil, anti-American, communistic, welfare-begging private sector unions work…..

I set up a business, using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY (my capital and/or cash money).
I pay for the space, using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY.
I pay the taxes using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY.
I supply the parts and inventory, using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY.
I pay for the insurance, using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY.
I pay the labor, using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY.
I recruit, hire, and advertise, using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY.
Oftentimes an entire life’s savings (MY PRIVATE PROPERTY) is at stake.
My future, my standing in the community, my credit, and MY PRIVATE PROPERTY are all at stake.
If I fail, I stand a good chance of being economically crippled for life.

One day, on MY PRIVATE PROPERTY that I own and acquired using MY PRIVATE PROPERTY, one of my employees, who is only in my presence because of the risk of MY PRIVATE PROPERTY, comes to me and says, “Here’s the story, Bub. From this moment forward I am going to begin organizing YOUR OTHER EMPLOYEES, to work AGAINST YOUR PRIVATE INTERESTS and do everything in our power to TAKE BY FORCE AS MUCH OF YOUR PRIVATE PROPERTY AS WE CAN GET OUR HANDS ON. We are going to spend a great deal of time and effort ORGANIZING AGAINST YOUR INTERESTS TO DO EVERYTHING IN OUR POWER TO GROW STRONGER AT YOUR EXPENSE, IN ORDER TO TAKE YOUR MONEY. You might as well have your business competitors working here on the shop floor. If you do not agree to our demands, we will go on strike, make your life miserable, harass and threaten and/or MURDER IN COLD BLOOD anybody you may want to hire in our place.”

Now the one and ONLY way that such a thing could EVER take place is for the government to step in and say, “Mr. Employer (rich, white, capitalist, male), if you fire this union man, you are going to jail.”

Plainly and simply, no union could ever exist in a free society. Yes, in a free society, you should be able to form and join a union of any type at any time for any purpose whatsoever. AND YOUR EMPLOYER SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIRE YOUR HAPPY ASS IN A HEARTBEAT FOR DOING SO.

FREEDOM IS A TWO WAY STREET.

I find this ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Truly. A man strolls onto the PRIVATE PROPERTY of another man and tells him how he will employ his PRIVATE PROPERTY going forward, OR ELSE!, and hundreds of millions, if not billions, of people the world over think that the first man is not only somehow better than sub-human filth, they actually see him as a hero! To me, this is one of the most perverse and mystifying examples of twisted human thinking the world has ever seen. I can’t say it enough; you come onto my PRIVATE PROPERTY, and bargain with me, using the THREAT OF GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED FORCE, about how much of my PRIVATE PROPERTY you will allow me to keep! And this is somehow acceptable?

As I say, even conservatives, (who have escaped the liberal brainwashing that begins when we are still in the womb on guns, race, US history, etc., etc., and do not subscribe to the easy notions that are so readily picked up by the unthinking) seem to fall for this trap. Seem to believe that…

“The work place is filled with mean managers and mean bosses who were/are really mean to kids and women and workers and paid them pennies instead of the legitimate millions that they were REALLY worth, making evil white male capitalists even richer, and they enslaved them and coerced them and made them work real hard and were really, really mean. THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for the government stepping in and saving women and children from mean bosses and really mean white capitalist men.”

Needless to say, each and every single word of that narrative is as totally false and ridiculous as the liberal narrative on US history, or bad guns, or evil white men. If you know people who believe that stuff, you cannot help them. DO NOT waste your breath on them, DO NOT do their research for them; have them read Sowell or Williams or von Hayek, or von Mises, or Friedman, or even Stossel when they write of “sweatshops” either in today’s 3rd world or in America at the turn of the century.

A few ‘extremist’ members committing violence, with the silent support of the ‘moderate’ members.

There are a lot of people, including me, who know from personal experience that unions employ terrorist thugs as one of their primary tactics for holding power. I celebrate with each decline in union membership and with each union that is decertified.

I’ve had the complete displeasure of being stuck behind a car that was trying to pull into a parking lot of a business being picketed by union workers. The language and threats were mindblowingingly disgusting. Nothing was off limits. They are are the scum of the earth.

Unions use many of the same tactics at terrorists, they just usually don’t go quite as far. For example, they will terrorize family members of someone they don’t like for months, but will stop short of beheading them.

The goal is also the same, to use intimidation and fear to force behavior.

When Right to Work is signed in WI I plan to burn my Teamster’s withdrawal card. I made a suggestion to a local group they they could sponsor a party like the old draft card burning parties....

“If I can take on 100,000 protesters, I can do the same across the world,” he said.

What a moron...

I heard from Scott Walker’s Freedom Summit speech what the union thugs did to him and his family. As he told the Iowa Freedom summit:

". . . all the death threats and the visits to our home . . . at one point, in all of this, there were literally thousands of protesters out in front of our family home in Wauwatosa; where my two sons were still going to high school. And where my two parents were living at the time. In fact, my kids were targeted on Facebook.

"And at one point I remember my mother, in her seventies; and my youngest son, Alex, were literally at the grocery store where protesters followed them down the aisle just to yell at them; even though it was me that was doing the policies out there."

"Even more so, than just the visits in front of our home, was the fact that, at one point, the threats were just overwhelming. Most of those death threats were directed at me, but some of the worst were directed at my family. I remember one of the ones that bothered me the most, was someone literally sent me a threat that said,

"they were going to gut my wife like a deer."

Another time a protester sent a threat directly to my wife that said that if she didn't do something to stop me,

"I would be the first Wisconsin governor ever assassinated."

The writer went on in greater detail to point out where exactly my children were going to school; where my wife worked; where my father-in-law was still living at that time. You could see what they were doing and so, I tell you today that . . . the protesters were trying to intimidate us."

"But, you know what, all they did was remind me how important it was to stand up for the people of my state. They reminded me of why I ran for governor in the first place."

The rhetoric coming from the Wisconsin union protestors (many from out of state) would come out of scripts written by the extremist Islamic savages. The union forces will hock their mothers to serve their self interests. Their immense war chest stocked with union dues derived from incomes our tax money have provided, will pay for a Walker defeat if he runs for President. I say,

Bring them on!

The union's noble purposes that helped the worker have stability in their working years has been corrupted into a union-government symbiosis. This noble relationship has evolved, not to the benefit of the worker, but to the benefit of the union and the pocketbooks of the politicians. It has abandoned its noble purpose for greed.

The unions have evolved over the decades into parasites for their own self-serving purposes--not the worker's. The life cycle of money thrives off the taxes taken from the life's blood of our hard earned wages. The government unions have sucked off our hard earned money for decades as this parasitical species has evolved into a more deadly being. To maintain its existence, they have sucked from the money flow to such an extent, that our cities have become wastelands and, the middle class, an endangered species. They will cry a river over greedy corporations and the greedy rich while their own greed for the public dollar has no comparison. It will be music to my ears to hear the squealing pigs as they go down with a Walker victory.
