Cenk: "Here are the cold hard numeric facts."

Bego: "Let me tell you my random personal anecdotal story that is supposed disprove the data."

[justjulie37]

this man is really boring. He just keeps telling Cenk to read his book, and spewing a bunch of nonsense. No one is saying unions are perfect, but workers must have a way to make sure they are not being abused and have safe work environments and so on and so on. Employees have to have a voice, and if not for unions how can that happen?

[mojorhythm]

Bego is patronizing as hell. It is so annoying.

[forfauxsake]

what the hell was that? the guy ignored the facts, told a story, and asked cenk on a date? that was WEIRDDDDD, man

Who in the their right miind would want to give somebody the right to deny somebody else the right to a secret ballot?

[avatarmn]

This idiot says that it's because of unions that jobs have gone overseas, it's not. It's because of free trade, the removal of tariffs. And I don't think this country would be any better off if those jobs that pay a dollar a day were HERE instead of in China, etc.

[BeastAP23]

Im the KING of anecdotal evidence... mmkay?

[xdassinx]

Cenk vs Mr. Mackey????

Unions are bad mmmmm K.

No employ wrote the boss a letter and told him he/she wanted to join a union???? Are you kidding me with that??

A working class person without the benefit of a 6 figure lawyer might as well write a letter saying "I quit" for all the good writing the boss asking to let him be in a union is going to do.

I'm white collar myself. And I have in no small part my blue collar UAW member gradfather to thank for that.

[mangajo]

he's evading the truth. wasted ten minutes on personal anecdotes instead of an admission that he's wrong

[writersblock26]

@benjaminpulanco Yeah, but unfortunately, Mr. Bego isn't even as entertaining as Mr. Mackie.

[Hobbsdude]

Facts are stubborn things you conservative douche.
