"right to work is wrong".co m Seems to me and most others that your afraid of the truth ! When a person CHOOSES to go to work , they either CHOOSE to work at NO#1 Union shop or they CHOOSE to work at a non-union shop ! So they are CHOOSING , now why does wrongriki want to try and cover that fact up ? Its because that makes its blather nothing but LIES !!Remember the republican mantra " deny, deflect, mis-lead and lie "right to work for less".co m

Wrongriki , you are all that is wrong with things like these forums with your constant barrage of right -wing propaganda and bullsh^t ! Then complaining that your being picked on when all you post is debunked and refuted ! Since you insist on being the victim you should look that up on your right-wing websites !!When you persist in this mis-guided strategy of victimhood you should at least see if you qualify for a mental disability !

The National Right to Work Committee and its legal arm, the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, are longtime proponents of right to work. The group claims to be a “worker advocate,” but an examination of its press releases issued between 2003 and 2005 showed no reference to any attempt to improve benefits or working conditions for workers; and only one mention of increasing wages. Meanwhile, the organization continuously pushes reports with outdated and flawed information to advance right to work. National Right to Work refuses to disclose its donors. However, like ALEC, the group has connections to the ultra-conservative Koch brothers.

High-tech companies that provide good-paying, American jobs favor states where unions have a strong presence, because unions provide a high-skilled workforce and decrease turnover.

Communities lose jobs when wages are lowered by right to work. The Economic Policy Institute estimates that for every $1 million in wage cuts, the local economy sheds six jobs.

Right to work does not improve the employment rate. In fact, eight of the 12 states with the highest unemployment rates have right-to-work laws on the books.

According to a report from Ohio University, these laws actually led to a decrease in employment in certain industries.

Just some facts...

Workers living in right-to-work states earn about $1,500 less per year than workers in states without these laws. The wage penalty is even higher for women and workers of color.

The rate of employer-sponsored health insurance for workers in right-to-work states is 2.6 percentage points lower than in states without these restrictions.

According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the rate of workplace deaths is 52.9 percent higher in right-to-work states.

PSSSST, don't think UNION FAT CATS give a ratsa** if workers have a voice or a choice!

Just four years after the worst shock to the economy since the Great Depression, U.S. corporate profits are stronger than ever. In the third quarter, corporate earnings were $1.75 trillion, up 18.6% from a year ago, according to last week'si gross domestic product report. That took after-tax profits to their greatest percentage of GDP in history.

But the record profits come at the same time that workers' wages have fallen to their lowest-ever share of GDP.Source:CNN Money PSSSST, dont think corporation give a ratsa** if workers have a voice ! ~~~~ scrappile

Since you DONT KNOW and since it's not my job to enlighten your dumb bu tt I guess you'll remain ignorant and clueless ! Maybe you should go to your right-wing garbage factory retreat and get a little more indoctrination ! You are ignorant of unions so you refuse to believe that anyone WANTS to be a member ! Let me assure you that the VAST MAJORITY of union members want to be there and dont mind paying their share for the benefits they receive !You believe all the garbage propaganda the right-wing goober fests tell you and since you have NO EXPERIANCE you just cant accept the facts !And just HOW IS MAKING A CHOICE , NOT MAKING A CHOICE ???

Union Fat Cat supporters hide behind the false claim that all unions protect all workers.

Right to work’s true purpose is to give the workers the ability to choose whether to participate in a labor organization as a condition of employment and to serve as a check on Union Fat Cat greed.

Union Fats Cats’ true purpose is to prevent the ability of the workers to choose whether to participate in a labor organization as a condition of employment and to serve their own greed.
