I can't say enough how much the UAW sucks.

Just received a magazine/Obama propaganda in the mail.

In the words of today's youth: O M G !

What a bunch of rubbish for the weak minded.

From telling people that if they don't work for a union then they're likely to get fired, to blaming our economic woes on Bush (I had to read that one twice, since we're now nearing the end of a full term for Obama. I guess his blame game has rubbed off on these buffoons.).

The NRA is a right wing propaganda machine for the GOP.

But gun owners aren't forced to join the NRA if they don't want to support the Republicans.

How is this allowed, when many in the UAW don't want to genuflect to Obama like this leftist rag suggests?

It's not a matter of the state allowing it. If your non union you make your best deal with a company and your done. Move to another company and start again.

The state only garuntees minimum wage.

States that are "Right to Work" non-union get the same deal that union gets

Right to work, open shop, whatever you wanna term it, is a way to break unions.

The state requires equal pay within a shop, plant, on a site or project. Non union actually make more, no union dues to be paid, ect.

When enough people drop out and the union goes away due to no funds, who do you get equal pay to?

That's when minimum wage will be your high water mark.
