Damn shame.



1. Doubtful if the NEA was courting you very hard, especially
when the
local leaders realized you were just a racist P.O.S.

2. Too bad you weren't in the bargaining unit of one of the more
aggressive unions I did work for in the 1970s. They would have
found you
hanging from a hook in a meat locker.

3. You're a real management puke, the sort of guy that when
management
says bend over, you bend over and hand the managers a tube of K-Y
or a jar of Vaseline.

So unions are racists from your viewpoint.


What? Your brain has deflated, Bilious.

Autocorrected fascists to racists.



Fascist? What's fascist about "taking care" of scabs and their first
cousins?

Do it my way, or we kill or damage you. Seems a lot illegal.






So, if something is illegal, it is fascist? You're a real student of
history...in 1933, trade Unions were outlawed by Adolf Hitler, while
collective bargaining and the right to strike was abolished. Hitler
created a "right to work" country.

Hardly relevant. Hitler did a lot more than simply outlaw trade unions.

Interesting statistics about unions from Wiki:

"In 2013 there were 14.5 million members in the U.S., compared with 17.7
million in 1983. In 2013, the percentage of workers belonging to a union
was 11.3%, compared to 20.1% in 1983. The rate for the private sector
was 6.7%, and for the public sector 35.3%."

The last sentence is the most revealing.

Guess what? Unions remain perfectly legal in the USA as does collective
bargaining and the right to strike (with a few exceptions related to
public safety). It's just that fewer and fewer workers want to be union.




It's not really "want to be."
