   Just wait till the next one, you'll be amazed that someone can think for   
   themself!

   It has nothing to do with being allowed to work. That is our benefits. We pay   
   into that so we can retire at a decent age and be able to support ourselves.   
   Along with excellent insurance with very minimal copays. I don't see a problem   
   with it at all. Even non-union you pay into that stuff right off the top of   
   your gross pay, don't you? No difference, there. Except we know how our stuff   
   is divided up, whereas most people not in a union have no clue what they're   
   paying out to before they actually get paid.

   You are definitely in your own little world. You should think about padding   
   your walls.

   Bullshit. The members of those unions damn near destroyed it themselves by   
   becoming complacent and outright lazy. You don't need a $35/hr broom pusher, or   
   air traffic controllers falling asleep on the job. Those have nothing to do   
   with the union themselves. Nice try, though.   
      
   The majority of people I've talked to that work non-union in construction only   
   have one excuse for not being union.. and that's because they don't want to   
   have to succomb to random piss tests. How's that for your "hard working   
   Americans?"
