The issue is unions buying politicians with millions of dollars of dues money, then going to those same politicians to negotiate their own benefits. If they don't get what they want, they can buy someone else and he pols know that. It's called racketeering, or "business as usual" for Unions... You ignorant little slut. It is illegal for unions to use dues money for political purposes. Unions may collect voluntary gifts from members for political action. Cite that law. I would like to read what it actually says because it is clear the unions are spending a lot of money. More than half of the top 20 contributors to the 2010 cycle were unions. Harry is full of ****... He will certainly insult us though for asking  You ignorant ass. 18 U.S.C. § 610 prohibits a labor organization from making a contribution or an expenditure in connection with a federal election. Many states have similar regulations. The Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 added a paragraph at the end of § 610 that expressly authorizes labor organizations to establish, administer, and solicit contributions for political funds, provided that the fund not make a contribution or expenditure in connection with a federal election by utilizing money or anything of value secured by physical force, job discrimination, financial reprisals, or the threat thereof, or by monies required as a condition of employment or union membership. That's why unions have PACs. It is legal for a union to raise non-dues money for its PAC. There have been some few cases, successfully prosecuted, against union officials who broke this law. Stick to shoveling **** in barns. It obviously is what you know best. You're not equipped to deal with adult, knowledge-based political discussions. |
