Non-unon workers make far less than union workers. Vote your pocket book people. Don't be a "Joe the plumber."

It now takes two non-union income earners in a household to earn what used to be earned by one union employee. Unionized workers are the most productive workers in the economy, fact not conjecture. The loss of the jobs each of you talk about are more directly related to trade policy and deregulation than unionization. A high union wage helps drive wages higher for other workers. Let's build a strong middle class. Let's build a unionized workforce.

This is one person that I never have to vote for. He has NO IDEA what he is talking about. Look at what industries have been driven out of business by the unions...auto workers...going away, airlines...going broke and going away, factory work....going away and never to return to the USA. Employee Free Choice Act equils LESS JOBS....

I have been in union jobs twice in my life and they both sucked. Doing a good job meant next to nothing. You merely had to show up and go through the motions not to get fired and promotion was merely a matter of seniority. I had and do have better working conditions, pay and benefits without a union than I ever did with one.

I was a union member. Unions are nothing more than shills for the liberal democratic party. Their primary concern is like the democrats; hold on to and increase power. What you are seeing in Detroit with the big three is a prime example of the havoc wreaked on business by unions. Unions = loss of jobs/productivity/money.
