That's downright moronic.
Therefore, it's PERFECT for the UFO/CIA...
The People's Cube is a great , funny site . Not mine , but there often .
In what ever event the democrats wants lo look good in the main medias eyes;
What the democrats do is if they don't have enough local support? is that they bus them in.
The democrats do that at alot of events "Standard democrat practice".
Considering where you all are at? More than that you have seen.
It will never work ... none of these people can afford to pay the initiation fee or the monthly dues! ;-)
The first experience I had with unions was at 16, when they came to the A&P and tried to bully the sack boys into joining. A few other employees were already members and tipped us to the fact that they provided no service, while collecting your money every pay day.
Great now I can "assist" the alcoholics and drug users that sit on the freeway off ramps in to the "Freeway Moochers Local 105"...Or how about the "Crackheads local 110"..Then of course the "Occupoopers Local 99" for those that want to sit and bitch and moan as their "career" choice.
Let the AFLCIEIO organize the great unwashed, most of what the pick up will be folks like I described above, plus some liberal loonatics to manage the whole thing. And they will all be looking for a handout, not a handup.
And these losers will be handed scraps, while those liberal loons will be skimming off the top, living in McMansions and driving Mercedes, off the backs of the members. Do these idiots NEVER LEARN? Get a real job, even at McDonalds, and they will get more than the dregs that their "union" gives them.
And you just know that the unions will try to get us to pay the unemployed's union dues.
I was just going to ask who was paying the dues!
If you go to this "union's" web site you'll see that its strictly a creation of the AFL-CIO, NEA, AFSCME, Daily Kos, Democratic Underground, Common Dreams, etc., etc.
Their aim is to train "jobless activists" and get Depression era jobs bills passed---WPA, CCC. In other words, get even more people on federal payrolls and into public employee unions.
So if you join this "union" and then get a job in the private sector, are you a scab?
It is from their old playbook.
The German Communist Party succeeded in organizing a politics of opposition and protest among unemployed workers in the public spaces of German civic life during the late Weimar Republic.
The easiest way to break this union would be to offer these losers J-O-Bs! (low-paying entry-level jobs, of course). See how fast they scatter then!
