he gets back in his car for the ride home.
He turns on a radio talk show, the host’s keeps saying that liberals
are bad and conservatives are good. (He doesn’t tell Joe that his
beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit
Joe enjoys throughout his day) Joe agrees, "We don’t need those big

*nice summary!


I paid full working dues to my union for 25 years. I was always happy to
write the check each quarter.


I never felt more like a statistic when I worked in the union when I
was young. *I was nothing more than a drone, as were the others.
Having had some encounters with the Soviet Bloc when in my life time,
I have appreciated the fact that working under union duress was a
microcosmic experience of communism. *

and i never felt more like a drone watching plant closings, lay offs
of engineers, etc, with no union protection at all, courtesy of
'management watching out for stockholders' when they were really
protecting themselves.


Employ yourself. It allows you the freedom of choice.
