When Unions Win Mob Rule Follows and Taxpayers Lose

 
 - Jerry McConnell  Wednesday, March 9, 2011

Can you believe that there are polls that show that labor unions are at least as favorable, if not more so, than large corporations; you know, big businesses many of which were started as not only a small business but a teeny, tiny business that sucked up all of the investor’s life savings but put those same people on a par with, or even a notch below all of those on municipal welfare, for many of their early and formative years while struggling to get their heads above water?  Well it’s true. 

Labor unions created, in their own minds, a to “be there” scenario for the worker when needed to fight against those dreaded, filthy rich corporate tycoons who do nothing but try to steal the workers’ paychecks and put the money back into their own treasuries.  Labor unions, on the other hand, are continually harassing and cajoling the workers for larger and larger shares of the workers’ paychecks to build up what they tell the workers are “rainy day” funds; but for whom?  And after the largest share of the dues money gets paid out to socialist-liberal-Democrats for their reelection campaigns, guess where the balance goes???  Ever notice how many labor union meetings in sunny climes take place during the winter months in lavish and lush hotels?

Who creates jobs, we should ask.  Do unions create employment (jobs) or is it the management of the corporations that grew from that small business while struggling to provide a better product or service?  We all know the answer to that.  Who employs the workers that get down in the trenches and produce that product or service; is it the labor unions or is it the management of those corporations?  We all know the answer to that one also.

The only jobs that labor unions create are those within their own ranks; leaders, takers, and enforcers

The only jobs that labor unions create are those within their own ranks; leaders, takers, and enforcers.  Some workers get smart early on and wiggle their way into the ranks of the union hierarchy and recipients of the largesse that they finagle out of the real workers known as “union dues.” How many jobs have been lost to many businesses, large and small, as a result of poor union management decisions that hurt the mother-lode corporations and drain their treasuries precariously close to company bankruptcy or insolvency? 

Today America is facing many areas of unrest in financial areas of employment from the highest and mightiest corporations to the neighborhood general store; from some of the mightiest states to towns and villages across the country.  Some states are trying to recover from the monetary ills brought down on them from disastrous mis-handling by carelessly overspending liberal Democrats who were determined to follow Obama’s lead of distributing the state’s citizens’ tax money to benefit everyone but those tax payers.  Those same states are also suffering from the Democrats’ most lethal and punitive weapon; joblessness.  Where Democrats gather in sufficient numbers to control destinies of others, negativity and depressive economic conditions will surely result. 

Last year, 2010, in the month of November, the American people spoke up loudly and clearly in the national elections telling Democrats that they had had enough of the Socialist experiment Mr. Obama was rubbing their noses in and they very nearly gave complete control back to the conservative Republicans.  The House of Representatives in Congress went to the more fiscally serious conservatives, and across our mighty land from sea to shining sea, Republicans were elected to governorships in majority resulting numbers along with complete and almost total fashion in many state legislatures; as I said above, ‘loudly and clearly’.

By abandoning their jobs to demonstrate against their employers, the people, they are flirting with occupational suicide

Some of the new state shepherds are flexing their fiscal muscles on the sources of money overzealousness; the municipal labor unions in particular where cost management is an absentee strategy, no longer practiced or even considered.  These labor unions such as the ones in Wisconsin where the first confrontations between Governor and Unions took place seem to have forgotten for whom they work and get paid.  These employees hired by the people of the municipalities and state think that they work for the labor union and go running to them to get more of what the state can no longer freely dole out to them.  They are wrong to think so.  By abandoning their jobs to demonstrate against their employers, the people, they are flirting with occupational suicide.

Several other states are in the process of falling into the same syndrome of pampered labor unions, many vastly overpaid and over-benefited are refusing to try to assist their home state and cities to overcome the mountainous debts and deficits that were caused primarily by themselves and-or their predecessors in the work place.  Instead of getting any easier for these unreasonable and greed obsessed union members, but employees of the tax payers, they may learn from any mistakes the first conflict managers may make and clamp down harder.

Governor Walker of Wisconsin is leading the charge of the defending and relief-seeking state executives from exorbitant debts already the fault of the unions and their benefactor socialist liberal Democrat pawns and has experienced Obama’s interference in a state problem by sending out of state supporters to stand with the unions. 

As Obama once arrogantly said to the GOP when challenged on his excessive spending prolifics, “I won, I’m the president” now Governor Walker will be saying the same thing about last November and also after the smoke clears from this one.
