I have a cousin from Chicago area, he has been in a union all his working life, since he was born knowing his father.
Last time I talked to him he had worked 4 out of 24 months. During the times he didn't have work he still had to pay his dues or loose all he had worked for the last 20 years.

Boeing built a second production line in South Carolina, this created 1000 jobs or more. The NLRB(the National Labor Relations Board) has issued a complaint and if they win Boeing will have to move back to Washington State.
Why????? be cause South Carolina is a right to work state.
Why would a federal agency be in charge of where a company can build its plants?


I personally do not think Unions in the proper sense are bad.
Its when the Unions became powerful political organizations that they became dangerous. As in they do not have to follow the Obamacare like the rest of us. Or they can the the feds what to do.
