Notice that they stay in the cities where it's easy to frighten the sheep into a stampede.  Forget the goons, punch the leader in the nose and it would stop.  Of course that is nearly always the case...it's the guy on top stirring things up that needs to be addressed.

It's easy to take that attitude if you ignore the history of Unions, everything they say, and everything they support.
Like the gov theft of GM from it's legal owners, or union support for OWS.

That whole GM debacle was about future pension benefits and mismanagement.  You have two morally corrupt entities, management and labor, one who wanted the moon and the other who refused to say no in lieu of passing the problem to someone else.  Neither were being responsible and each played to their own greed.  

Well, someone else got the problem and that was the taxpayer.  That would be me....and you other tax payers.  

Thanks a lot.  Enjoy your damn pensions and country club memberships I helped pay for via the kindness of the IRS and the faux president both unions and mega-rich CEO's (CFO's, VP's, stock manipulating brokers, MBA's, etc.) helped put in office.

Rastus, you got f*cked twice.
The actual owners of GM were investment firms, Cerberus was one of them, those are the firms that invest 401K funds, so your retirement fund was embezzled by the seizure, then you got screwed again with the cash pay off to the Unions.
And you didn't even get a kiss.

Yep, Unions are a real bastion of Capitalist principles alright.

While a guest on a local Chicago radio show, Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) VP Jesse Sharkey was questioned over his recent participation in the Midwest Marxism conference and refused to answer why he was there and what relationship the Chicago Teachers Union has with the conference and sponsoring organization, the International Socialists Organization. Sharkey, who was documented by Breitbart News attending the Marxist conference at Northwestern University last month, appeared caught off-guard and struggled to respond to the question.
