Unions are an arm of the DIMs and major extortionists. As to the results of the VW vote: Bwaaaaaahahahahahahaha.
Unions Slump on Bad Obama Bet
John Ransom | Feb 18, 2013
Alarm bells are going off for labor unions around the country.
Four years after electing the most pro-labor president of the last half-decade, it looks like the scheme has backfired.
In 2008 and 2012 labor unions used everything, including a little body English, ballot stuffing and voter intimidation to elect a president who would bring the prestige of presidential backing to recruitment efforts for labor unions.
Since then not only have labor unions taken historic defeats in former union strongholds, like Wisconsin and Michigan, labor union membership is declining at a rate that will make them a footnote in the annals of history if the steady decline in membership keeps up at the current pace.
The U.S. Department of Labors Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released statistics Jan. 23 that confirm an alarming drop in unionization, writes Denver Labor attorney Bill Berger in the Denver Business Journal, especially in private (nongovernmental) workplaces . BLS statistics show unions lost 400,000 members in America last year. In 2011, 11.8 percent of all workers were union. That dropped to 11.3 percent in 2012.
Were getting destroyed, said MNBCs hilariously-named business expert and Democrat, pro-union candidate Krystal Ball about labor unions.
And yes, I understand Krystal Ball is her real name, but there are cool real names- like Johnny Ransom- and ones that make you sound like a stripper, like, um Krystal Ball.
If you can manage to watch past her eyebrows moving up and down to highlight her sincerity and the drippy, syrupy, plastic rhetoric well, anyway, you can see the video below.
