  • These WORTHLESS UNION SCUM need to be crushed....I am the 1%

  • Unions only make up about 13% of the market share so why do non union workers rag on something that hardly exists?

    Ignorance!

  • Just to let you know, when I watch this before going to bed, I sleep much better!! Thanks for a great message!

  • @chuck1728 Thank you, that's very kind of you! I'm surprised at all the anti-union sentiment on here, but it's folks like yourself that I wrote this song for. Glad it helps you sleep!

  • @laughingblades what do you do for a living?

  • I can sum up the Union mentality really simply.

    The Serfs who produce all the grain ask the king if they can have more bread.

  • Here's an idea to all you Union Whiners, stop whining, get organized, pool your wages, and open your own worker owned companies, then democratically manage them by electing workers councils and dividing up equal income shares according to labor or equal company shares or whatever Cooperative model works for you whiners, then form Cooperative Coalitions where you use worker owned markets to sell goods from worker owned companies, and actually work for yourselves you socialists.

  • Listen to these Union whiners, asking for 8 hour work days and "fair wages" and "Job Security".

    If they want "Fair Wages" and "Job Security" and "Better Working Conditions" why don't they stop WHINING, pool their money together at the Union Level, open their own damn companies, and go into business for themselves?

    But nooooo, that's SOCIALISM, so these SOCIALISTS want to make Capitalist companies be socialists, because they don't have the leadership and education to open their own.

  • I can say from experience that unions have lost a lot of their power and clout over the years. They have become "paper tigers". They have gone soft. My experience.

  • Unions, look into the CMPL, the campaign for a Mass Party of Labor. For the People, by the People. Workers should have the power to make decisions in this nation. We built it, and we can fight the bosses army's magnified a thousand fold. CMPL!

  • @amsterdam78 Workers do have the power to make decisions in this nation, its called an election. If you idiots dont want "Bosses" then go start your own business. This is a free nation, nobody requires you work for anyone you dont want to. If you want to work for a company, work for a company, if you want to work for yourself, then work for yourself. But to take a job someone offers you and somehow think you deserve the power to make business decisions is nuts...

  • Unions are a necessary evil SOMETIMES. If a company is reasonable with employees, why the hell would you want a confrontational relationship by forming a union? Unions do have the effect of making some employers more reasonable simple by their existence, like conceal carry makes criminals more wary about committing crimes. Unions have their place, but it is NOT EVERYWHERE.  Plus, how do you deal with the problem of corruption of union leaders? That question also applies to CEO's.

  • Lovely. Thank you so much for pulling this together.

    Hey Joe Biden--you say we (Obama Adm) should be listening to us? Get rid of Arne Duncan and his corporate sponsored charter schools and truly support public education. I wish Hillary was the President. She said she would get scrape NCLB. She also supported the public option (medicare for all). We-the public got screwed. Obama said he would march with the workers but the WH ignored Wisconsin. Shame on YOU!

  • @whispersinmorn

    how many illiterate morons are you people planning to graduate before you realize that they cannot compete with the rest of the world. YOU are creating a class of dependents who sooner or later will become a mob.

    Given, easier to control they may be but sooner or later they will turn on you as well. Move to Detroit. Democratic Utopian dreams lives on there - 49 % functional illiteracy rate. Bravo ! Proletariat Lives.

  • @polamer I have the union living spirit. You have nothing but bitterness.

  • WONDERFUL VIDEO!!

    We have to keep the fire alive! It's the only chance we have to take our country back!

    Have NEVER belonged to any union, but am intelligent enough to know that thanks to the unions, I can work a 40 hr week, have breaks, etc, and many other benefits.

    We MUST fight for & WIN back these rights that have been robbed from unions.

  • @rombergbrf Thanks for the very kind feedback! You are right, unions are essential to workers' rights. I'm not in a union either, but I surely respect our firefighters, police, nurses, teachers, etc. who depend on their unions for basic protections they've had for decades.

  • protection ?

    confiscation of people's money to pay for somebody's pension ? what about my rights ? it's a robbery !

    unions are the destroyers of this country along with the democratic party. both of them should set up a shop, build widgets and see how competitive (successful) they can be. . This country was founded Not on premise of redistribution of wealth ! Hello ? Present day taxation makes people nothing more but perpetual indentured servants of the government.

  • @rombergbrf why not outsourse the dmv,hospitals,police,firefight­ers etc to Labor pool,day labors at home depot? no pensions or even promice of a pension ,outsourse police academies to china.we the usa will deserve what we get and save a wad of money lol

  • ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!

  • @azulthegd Thank you so much!

  • @azulthegd

    abhorrent

    could pass with flying colors for a socialist propaganda.

    socialism like any other system breeds elitism and a given "ruling" class.

    The unfortunate difference as pertaining to the socialism vs capitalism is that socialism is governed by an ideology that is intrinsically counter-intuitive to the human nature - 'what's mine is mine and not yours'. Blaming others for having more than you caters to the provincial mind set of jealousy and covetousness,
