Forgive me for not being all-knowing, but *what* exactly does the International Union of Painters have to do with American workers and politics??
The AWB Has Expired - Gun Owners Have Won Again For All Americans!
Isn't this union one of the so called descendant unions from the old commy unions of the 1930/40's?
Why, South, it has EVERYTHING to do with it - and the glorious cause of World Socialism...
Most major unions style themselves "International" because they represent workers in both the US and Canada. This is particularly true in Autos, as there are major Canadian Auto plants that are under the same master contracts as the US plants, but it is also the case in many other craft and industrial areas. Management is generally international (look at the attendence industry trade shows), so unions are, as well.
