Man, I hate to fuel OT crap like this, but AFAIC, it's the friggin unions
that should close shop and hit the road. There may have been a need for them
a half century ago, but federal and state regs now do what the unions first
did. Now all they serve to do is to line the pockets of the union "leaders,"
drive up prices, and protect the s**ty worker.

I've worked both sides of that fence...

Wal-Mart's Colorado Unit Rejects Union

3 minutes ago

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT - news) on Friday
said
workers at its Colorado tire shop have voted to reject union
representation, a
step which deals another blow to efforts to unionize at the world's
largest
retailer.

A Wal-Mart statement said tire and lube express associates at its
Loveland
supercenter voted 17-1 to reject representation by the United Food &
Commercial
Workers Union.

What a shame. Wow, seventeen to one.

Wal-Crap's been closing its stores after employees vote for a union.

BTW, Herring, as a sub teacher, aren't you drawing the benefits
negotiated by a labor union?

Are you paying your dues, or are you the typical Republican freeloader?

One needs only to look at France and Germany to see what the unions can do to an
economy, even when the countries are run by such noble characters as Chirac and
Shroeder.

Germany has 10,5% unemployment and France just hit the 10% mark.
