"Union fat-cats...myth or reality?"

Better wages. The median weekly income of full-time wage and salary workers who were union members in 2010 was $917, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. For nonunion workers, it was $717.

More access to benefits. Some 93 percent of unionized workers were entitled to medical benefits compared to 69 percent of their nonunion peers, according to the National Compensation Survey published last year by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The survey represented about 101 million private industry workers and 19 million state and local government employees.

Tiredofit said- "If the worker actually supported the candidates, they would contribute freely themselves." If they didn't support the candidate, their workplace protections disappear. SB5 in ohio was a wonderful reminder of that.

Already showed a link that gave info stating the 8 of the 10 states with the highest poverty levels were right to work states.

Why arent you bitc hing about that ?? Why arent you bitc hing about that ?? Why arent you bitc hing about that ??

But it isnt nearly the amount your republican masters have told you it is ! And please explain how this "donation " is any different than your republican super PAC's !! What if someone sent Karl (the traitor ) Rove money but didnt want it spent on the mittster ??

Yes that money goes to the international and they give it to who ever they want. THANK you for admitting that finally.

And again,Dont you ever get tired of being wrong and debunked ???"right to work is wrong". co m"right to work is wrong". co m"right to work is wrong". co m"right to work is wrong". co m

Lets see , someone on here lied about being a shop steward and now that same person is presuming to know what my local can or cannot do !! Hmmmmmmm I wonder ?? Since you havent a clue I'll tell you , yes a portion of dues goes to the international but it aint much ! If the local goes through the trouble of putting it on the floor for a vote , again MAJORITY RULES !! And just what difference does it make ? What about he 3/4 of a billion donated by your republican super PAC's towards trying to get ole Mitt elected ! Its the same !! Why arent you bitc hing about that ??

You are Lying. The local shop cannot control dues money allocation by the International.

Dont you ever get tired of being wrong and debunked ???"right to work is wrong". co m"right to work is wrong". co m"right to work is wrong". co m"right to work is wrong". co m

Yes donations are given voluntarily just like giving millions toward a republican super PAC !!And as a member of the body you can bring that to the floor , have it seconded, and voted on !! MAJORITY RULES AGAIN !!!! And members know what they are getting into when they join so dont start with that ignorant republican crappola !

If the worker actually supported the candidates, they would contribute freely themselves. I guess Commrad Munster knows better how to use your money than you do.

Donations are given willingly, Unions take money from workers without their permission and buy power for themselves.

!"right to work is wrong".co m ! And the truth is a person either CHOOSES to go to work at A: a union shop or B: CHOOSES to go to work at a non-union shop ! Either way a person gets to choose and since thats the whole point of you "peoples" arguement it lets all the air out of your ballon now dont it ! what this does is tell everyone the real reason for these attacks ! All the right wants is to limit the unions ability to bargain collectively and choke off their donations to candidates who they support !When wrongriki has no valid answer this is what you can expect ! deflect, deny , mis-lead and lie !"right to work is wrong".co m

How will allowing Today’s workers the ‘Freedom to choose whether to participate in a labor organization as a condition of employment’ have an effect on any or all your five kids, who do not process information the same, from achieving a better life for themselves or their descendants?
