Center for Union Facts Ad: Class Elections

[blahnameful]

As a Chicagoan, I support these politically-active youths.

Go look at the education scores in Right to Fire states vs Union States.

Enough said.

I honestly don't get it v(o_o)v.

Great Ad. I am glad that Card Check is seen for what it is. A way to intimidate people into voting for a union.

Brilliant! They should do one about taxes and have there be a "tax" on grades where test points are "redistributed" to those "less fortunate" (aka stupid or lazy) students. Told my liberal ex-gf about it...she was liberal no more!

Labor unions are the most regulated outfit in the country...nonunion companys dont want its workers to have heathcare or retirement. Unions were successful in bringing about many improvements for workers, such as more reasonable working hours. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, union members in 1999 had median weekly earnings of $672 (that's $34,944 per year) while non-union workers had median weekly earnings of only $516 ($26,832)

These employer paid for ads are nothing more than an attempt to put an end to advancing social and economic interests of American workers right to form unions and collectively bargain.

This is exactly how they act. I know from multiple experiences in my past employment, some as an object of their tactics, some as a witness to their "tactics" impressed upon others.

Intimidation and Bully tactics. Destruction of property, places of employment, and goods produced by non-union members. Sabotage of work in the workplace produced by those who don't go along with their position or agenda.

I can't respect those who claim to be for my good, yet perform such atrocities.

[garwoodv6]

That's right, this is just how they operate: Bully tactics! And if that doesn't work, sabotage or destruction of non-union workers and the good products they are producing.

I know from personal experience.

Love it!

I think this is Great! What are Unions afraid of? Secret ballot elections are a core principle of our democracy. The hidden pun in this ad is that the "Union Teacher" was complicit in this Kid Bully's election tactics. America works best when we say Union NO!

[luciditynow]

this video is amusing, but it was poorly compressed, notice the digital artifacts.

Its been long known that capitalist unions do nothing to assist with workers power on the shop floor. The only by and for workers currently is the IWW (International Workers of the World) which is a syndicalist union, made up of anarchists, socialists, and other sorts. IWWdotorg

This is awesome. Very well done.

[PowerviolenceKaplan]

STEREOTYPES LOL

THE UNION SUCKS !!!!

[vflanders]

Great commercial! The comparison of class elections with union elections is a great idea to get the point across. The child actors are very talented!

I saw this ad on TV and visited the web site. They have a lot of good information for people who are concerned about the abuse of power in labor unions.
