Unbelievable.
Michelin has gone all out over the years to keep unions out of it's
three tire plants here in Nova Scotia.
Now, our slightly labour friendly New Democratic Party gov't wants to
introduce legislation that will have a 3rd party arbitrate a '1st'
contract when the workers want to unionize. ( only when the two
parties can't come to an agreement)
Michelin had their North American president in yesterday crying about
this new law and suggesting that future investment could dry up.
Kinda makes me ashamed that I just bought 4 new tires from them on
Monday.

it hasnt dawned on either companies or politicians...or people for
that matter, that unions are good for business.

people will let corporations rape the environment, cause planes to
crash, destroy entire world economies...but mention 'union' and people
get hysterical


Corporations and corporationists view worker as nothing more than a form
of chattel, and that capital is a more valuable commodity than labor.
Slowly but surely as the rich continue to suck the lifeblood out of the
economy, the workers will realize they outnumber the capitalists and
they're change things.

the GOP would willingly bring back feudalism if they
could...supported, no doubt, by fox news
