Yes all systems are corruptable, even unions but the rank and file must hold them accountable just as we must hold our elected officials accountable, as well as corporations. It is about being principled. I've negotiated contracts under USW, Teamsters, and AFSME. I've seen firsthand union officlas being in bed with the company at the expense of the worker, but we challenged our leadership throughout the process. Movements begin (ala OWS) when people get tired of the lies. I see OWS taking off!
I am 57 and my dead has been dead for ten years. Oh, the company he worked for didn't tell the workers benzyne is a cancer carcinigen. I will kick your ass at 57 you twerp. Be brave and tell me what you do for a living. C'mon ..., I bet you sit behind a desk all day and goobersmooch your boss all day. You still pushing the robber baron Hooverite trickle down concept that has been proven a mirage for the last 50 years?
@prrolg Hard to fire? Oh you mean hard to fire with no reason, for capital gain..... yea they sure are. Overpaid? I think youve got union workers mixed up with your slavemasters. violence? Well when you got a good thing goin and someone tries to bust it up by beating you, I think its ok to be violent, people are funny that way. If you are a scab and you have a skill, you should really look into being paid what your worth. Chances are you have no skill which is why your a scab,
@prrolg You seriously think Union men are overpaid? Income inequality at its worst since the height of the great depression lol. Guess you would be the thug for GH blair with that stupidity.
@Scarfieasbro You're stupid bud. Talking about "Income inequality" when I've seen union guys standing around getting $30 an hour. Going out on their lunch hour and stealing $1000 worth of copper on the job they're on and splitting it with the boss to make up for being late getting back from their lunch break. You must be a little schoolboy pussy whose dad is in a union I'm guessing.
@prrolg So there are some corrupt union people? What a huge ripping surprise. Hold them accountable, to police. That corrupt stuff sounds like tiny, tiny jazz compared to predatory lending/securities fraud thats been going on the last few years huh?
@prrolg But you haven't seen Wall Street execs behind closed doors making millions by moving money around doing absolutely nothing to earn it have you? You use strong words but I would put money on my union dad kicking the shit out of your panty waist cleaned-fingernailed old man who never did an honest day's work in his life. You benefit from a 40-hour week, vacation time, benefits including health care, and safe working conditions thanks to the union regradless if you are in one.
@wswalcott1 Are you sure of any of that? I'm willing to bet that I worked as hard as you dad on any given day in my non-union work. The difference is that I did it every day. You're union dad spent lots of days loafing and getting paid twice as much by the hour. Unless he got laid off to allow some bumb with seniority work for twice his pay.You're putting your dad up to fight for you? Did you ask him first? What the hell would you do if I finished with him?
@prrolg By the way, I take that as a threat. I do not deal with threats fairly. I do deal with them seriously and in any way imagined. So let's put a stop to this right now while it is just internet rhetoric.

This is supposed to show what as compared to what is going on, on wallstreet with the idiot protesters ? Coal Miners are a long way from the communist, marxist and socialist that are protesting with the unions right now. They are just a bunch of pathetic anti-american people who want government hand outs the rest of their lives.
@TATERROLLER i protest with the union, but I'm not a Marxist, I'm a christian. also, socialism is a sign that society has progressed. everyone fending for themselves is no society at all. Do you leave people bleeding int he streets where you live?
@TATERROLLER It is coal miners, coal miners daughters and granddaughters like me that are protesting 2. Don't think that using labels like socialist scare us. It was used as a weapon in 1921 too. Not all of us from WV forget the men who fought so that I would have better than my great Pawpaw had. Well, We don't have better than the generation before.

To all the anti union retards out there I would simply say this. Do you honestly believe you would have gotten a better deal without unions? Unions have many problems and corruptions of course. Do you really feel Americans would have gotten a better deal without them? If you're that fucking ignorant then you are hopeless as well as worthless. I wish we didn't need unions, but thanks to the gross immorality and subhuman demeanor of many employers, we do need them and we need more of them.
@txranger100 Hey, Fartrfire 451 -Just like a right-wing tri-cornered tea party-hatted response. So ..., whhat company did you build. Oh, you are working for yor daddy, huh? With your thinking evident, you do not hve the faculty and are not mentally equipped to build a company.
@jerryhello100 the movie gives me chills, the song is for red neck idiots who think there is no neutral positions in political stances. they can sit in their shanty shacks and listen to this on their 8 track with no running water and sing this all they want. the company men were crooks and the union were and both still are
@macditty No, I think the song is kinda cool, but what gives me the chills is that it presents there to be a black or white, one side or the other answer.
I don't agree with the vitriol you have against rural people though.

id expect pete to not be as small minded as the union worshiping person who composed this song ther are unions and there are companies, then there are workers and union workers who want more. why call them a scab they are just working? people associate 'scabs' with gun thugs company men hire. not even close
if ur union and you strike ill take your fucking job in a second no thought about it, chances are you have it made, and u can see unions r currupt as fuck in the movie that hyped this song
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@caerphillykid you corrupt union worshiping faggot. unions are dead, hell, american jobs are dead. ill steal yours through crisis reduction company if i ever get a chance. you can stand on a cold picket line while i make cash. yea local 1099 union did me well when they took me from a 13$ hr cutting meat and the store put me pushing grocery carts and picking up trash, all cos one non union manager didnt like me. what did my union rep say? take the pay cut and demotion & work your way back up
For the most part our manned space craft are built by union workers, I was a member of the UAW when I worked for Rockwell Int'l on the shuttle program.
NYC billionaire mayor Bloomberg was praising Walmarto the hilt for a $4million contribution tto the summer youth program. Walmart has been attempting to build stores in various NYC boroughs but the unions and mom and pops have been resisting. I wonder if the dirtbag mayor realizes that Walmart tells their employees that because they are paid so little ,they are eligible for welfare,food stamps and medicaid.Bberg lured the GOP here in 04 and it cost NYC over $400 million for jailing protesters
The Harlan strike is hauntingly similar to the strikes and wars in Mingo County WV, Crowsnest Pass, AB; Cumberland, BC; Drumheller, AB, etc. The rights & freedoms won by our grandparents are now, being eroded away in Wisconsin; Alberta; etc. I worry that we are seeing the devolution of democracy. No longer do we have the right to strike or even peacefully assemble as evident in the recent Toronto G-20 summit. I know which side I'm on. Which side are you on?

The so-called U.S. Democratic Party is on the side of the corporations. Who do you think buys their election campaigns? The donkey is feeding in the same trough as the elephant does. The Clintons & the Obamas lie to the working class, singing sweet tunes before the election and cozying up to the GOPpes when elected. Right now the White House is crying bipartisanship while conducting evil foreign wars and mollycoddling the so-called "defense" budget. Wake up, folks, or keep getting screwed.
Scott Walker is a little pansy that never did a decent days work in his life. Could not even wait to finish school because he was so anxious to go right into politics and work for the likes of the billionaire Koch Brothers.
I'm on the taxpayers side, not the public union bosses/government side. Public sector unions are in bed with Democratic politicians, who are in bed with corporations such as General Motors and General Electric. It's a vicious cycle and the taxpayer takes the hit, whether it is through bailouts or bloated salaries/benefits/pensions.
The middle class of this nation is the backbone of what has been created, become and will be. Wisconsin is trying to break that very backbone, whether unionized or not! Next it will be the Federal Government who attacks us further. The 'false representatives' remember us at election time for money, votes and support, but turn their backs when the going gets tough! To all the union and non-union people in Wisconsin, show your solidarity, stand together, overcome the oppresive politicians!
People around the world are awakening to the fact that their voices can be heard and they can have a say. No longer is it true that only those who count the votes control the power base of any' legitimate country'. Capitalism is near the breaking point; governments can no longer support give away programs; each of us will become responsible for one another! Social disobedience is only the beginning. Strikes will follow and the 'governments' will fall back into the hands of the people!
I'm on the side of the American taxpayer, not the unions. They once played an important role, but we have federal laws now to protect workers that we didn't have 50 years ago. Public sector unions should be extinct.
@ace8842 then you don't mind the governor giving away the public power plants and making sure there are no unions in 'em to cause any bother for the new owners. How much will that save the taxpayer you figure?
@ace8842 Ahhhh ace you have been misinformed to say the least. Stop letting other people do your thinking for you and start thinking for yourself. You will soon realize that your statement is bullshit.
@ace8842 If the likes of Gov. Walker and the Koch bros. can break Unions and set the stage for single party Republican rule, labor laws would be little more than a speed bump to them. Without Democrats and Unions, who in the world do you think is going to preserve the integrity of the Department of Labor? Speaker Boehner? Sen. Mcconnell? Justice Allito? These guys have allready shown where they stand on workers rights - and it sure as hell ain't with workers.
@Rennpanzer Worker's rights have swung too far in favor of the worker and against the employer. No wonder jobs go overseas. The Republicans are just trying to get it to be more balanced. There are federal laws that protect workers now.
Oligarchy: a government in which a small group exercises control especially for corrupt and selfish purposes; also : a group exercising such control
I'm sorry, my friend, but the Republicans have shown themselves, time and time again, to be much more inclined to represent corporate interests and the very wealthy than they have to represent balance.
@Rennpanzer General Motors and General Electric were bailed out by taxpayers. Those are Democratic corporations. All politicians are connected to corporations, except for maybe the Tea Party. And most smaller corporations are not bad and employ a lot of people. Union bosses, politicians, and corporations are all on the other side. Ending public sector unions helps the taxpayer.
@ace8842 Gm & GE weren't paying, or STILL paying, multi-million dollar bonuses to employees for tainting viable economic packages with toxic assets, then taking insurance policies out on the bundles, counting on them to tank.
@Rennpanzer And as far as lumping Union officers in with corporations goes. The senior Business Agent/Financial Secretary for my Local made a good point, a couple months ago, at a meeting I was in. He observed that if those Wall Street mega-banks and, hence, the federal government handled the people’s money the same way Unions handle the $'s in our treasuries and trust funds, our economy would, most likely, have never gotten into this mess.
@Rennpanzer Look, we can go round and round about whether busting public sector Unions is really a necessary economic move (in a state that just gave a hundred million or so in tax breaks to it's richest residents), or if it's just a stepping stone to private sector Union busting, on a path to crippling the Democratic party so that the GOP can enjoy single party rule. In the end, I suppose history will have to be the judge.
@Rennpanzer And the Democrats have done exactly the same thing, previously under cover and more recently out in the open. Our only option is to take our votes elsewhere.
@odinfromcentr2 I've heard an observation made that Democratic representatives have fallen into the flawed rationalization that they only need to be a little less crappy, in terms of social issues, selling out to lobbyists, and so on, than their GOP counterparts in order to stay in office. Well, until people wake up, pay attention, and realize that democracy requires some participation, that mind set will/can not change.
@odinfromcentr2 Ya think the Democrats aren't completely for the corporation-written laws that make it impossible to win the fight against a boss, and let the big companies have a fresh pool of dirt poor people who have nothing left to do but slag through a day job at Walmart because they dont have the money to start a business and the other businesses they could go to are pushed out? Ya think the NLRB'll let workers actually control their own bargaining to make it more truly in favor of them?
May that change, beginning with Wisconsin. We've been showing Walker what democracy looks like for nearly two weeks now. Hopefully it won't take a general strike to get the point across, but in the event of one, I will stand with the workers.
People are pussies now a day because they will not stand up for their rights against the corporations because they are afraid of being intimidated and losing their jobs. Our fore fathers had to deal with a gun facing at their face because of demanding their rights and people died for better wages and living condition. Without them we would not have labor laws of today.
@terrible99 but, being completely exploited and fucked in the ass by big corperations is totally ok, we have ipods and cell phones now! And we don't have to worry about working, our jobs are all overseas. I don't know about you but making my own decisions and critical thinking were just a bit tedious and time consuming, I like the way things are now, I don't really have a choice, but that's ok by me!
Americans workers join to the I.W.W or Workers Solidarity Aliance ! It with your side ! Really how much would I stand to work as slaves? How long you will work in order to live in a rented wheel-houses / caravans and cars or vans? How much longer will afford to PAY a monthly motel rooms that cost 60% of your monthly wage salary ? If you can not live on $ 7 an hour payment does something to the alaxeis! The strike is the most powerful of the weapons that you have! Take life in your hands!
@Cossack1917 I lost my job because of Union interference. I've been a worker since 16, 2 uncles killled in strikes, what can I do? My kids need to eat. Will the IWW put clothes on their back? Food In their bellies? Socialism has failed.
@VanHowle You must be proud that you had sulfur activists. I thanks to the trade union would not have a job now. The union is us, not the enlightened leaders. I am against the leaders. Fired and after two months of trying again in a job I came again. And hard-fought strikes. Did you screwed the epidemic so obviously the union will not be run by you. Prefer to work for 5-6 dollars an hour and they should rent a caravan for $ 300 a week? I'm not talking about socialism as the USSR...
The rich guys of this video its in the other side ! We are workers not rich assholes !And fuck the Walmart ! Walmart are worts than the holes of some mines! Really hell !
i would love to rap this. i tried it over a random hip hop beat and it might just work..students parents teachers united we will never be defeated! in solidarity
Currently Locked out by the company i work for, Roquette America Inc. I'm proud to be union, BCTGM 48G, and i will always be proud to be union. This song is so true also in that you either are union or your a scab. Had three people we thought were brothers cross the lines. Would hate to be them once we win.
It may be useful for some of us to remember the distinction between a business union and a democratic union, or to put it in the terminology of the early 20th century, a trade union and an industrial union. Its also useful to remember the distinction between a business government and a democratic government. Read your John Dewey and your Joe Hill to know the difference.
Not sure what this video is trying to say... Obama and his union-busting goons put down the Harlan county miners? Everyone knows that all the unions love Obama.
By the way, I met Peter Seeger. My wife went to his brother's summer camp so I'm a big fan so enjoy the music but these visuals are nonsensical.
how can you tell me he's not all Obama has done has been good for the people unlike Bush between the Haliberton and lying to the nations politics are a joke
Union folk build your roads. They wire your house so you can watch youtube videos. They do your plumbing so you can drop a deuce and take a shower. Show respect!
I'm grand-son of a miner ~ I'll never have to go down in one because he & other kin were UMWA organizers in the anthracite fields of southern Illinois with John L. Lewis ... no doubt what side we're on, Then AND Now.
Which side is Obama on? Not on the side of Chicago public schools, Afghanistan peasants, or single payer healthcare. I'd side him with the bankers and parasites.
@Madisonmofo no see obama is in the middle he is for the people but the also he has people working for him thats not on our side he is just a middle men that wanted to help but can't get s**t done because of the courption of the government
The problem is NOT capitalism. Its an unbridled and fraudulent Stock Exchange. Once stock was meant to STIMULATE PRODUCTION. Now its only worth is as a CURRENCY FOR SPECULATION and financial scams!!!
@result321 what are you talking about labor unions are the life and blood of the country with out them America would of falling years ago and it is about to happen because America is not offering the freedom it promise.
You're vid could be an ad run on TV - all the fatcats shown for their true colours in it be damned. If ever North America needed a revolution the time is now. Change only happens when you fight back and refuse to lay down. Why do we let them overpower us time and time again, when they are few and we are many? To those that fight for the freedom of a country and those that agree with that, I ask how is fighting on the side for the livelihood of your own people any different?
Without labour, there is nothing, no goods, no food, no capital. Money was only ever meant to be the medium of exchange. Money has fattened the ruling elites to a size beyond belief...
We need to take back control of lour government, so it like the French. the government officials are afraid of the people, not the other way around and that's what's wrong with this country, we need to be in control.
strange Pete always fighting for the working man and here the working class has joined the teabaggers and the mooseburgers. Afraid to give up those rights fought for so long and hard before to the newcomers. Which side are you truly on.
The Oligarch thugs have broken and/or co-opted the labor movement in our country. They have outsourced our jobs and stolen our resources. High time to make a stand. Class consciousness is key. I know who my enemies are and I know which side I am on.
I have experience in the trade unions, we need to unite with all workers, simple. Wealthy unions don't care for the UFCW,etc. The're untrained, and scum union bosses are worse than management! IWW, OK.
The UFCW is one of the richer Unions due to the number of people in the Union. Also thoses "scum union bosses" are elected by the people and if they are unhappy show it with votes. Also the Union is not the "union bosses" it is us. Unions are made of the people for the people. And maybe if people did more then bitch things would get done. If we don't like the way things are we need to change it... that is our job as Union members.
Your video has a flawed comparison between Hillary and Obama. You really might want to juxtapose Obama and George Soros in your next video, and you'll land a bit closer to the truth. Otherwise, thanks for making a video with this song as a soundtrack.
Before unions, 12 year olds were working eighty hour weeks in slaughterhouses for pennies. Read your history!

To all the anti union retards out there I would simply say this. Do you honestly believe you would have gotten a better deal without unions? Unions have many problems and corruptions of course. Do you really feel Americans would have gotten a better deal without them? If you're that fucking ignorant then you are hopeless as well as worthless. I wish we didn't need unions, but thanks to the gross immorality and subhuman demeanor of many employers, we do need them and we need more of them.

@Rennpanzer And as far as lumping Union officers in with corporations goes. The senior Business Agent/Financial Secretary for my Local made a good point, a couple months ago, at a meeting I was in. He observed that if those Wall Street mega-banks and, hence, the federal government handled the people’s money the same way Unions handle the $'s in our treasuries and trust funds, our economy would, most likely, have never gotten into this mess.
Rennpanzer 10 months ago
@Rennpanzer Look, we can go round and round about whether busting public sector Unions is really a necessary economic move (in a state that just gave a hundred million or so in tax breaks to it's richest residents), or if it's just a stepping stone to private sector Union busting, on a path to crippling the Democratic party so that the GOP can enjoy single party rule. In the end, I suppose history will have to be the judge.
