    My dad could probably have fought it, but that would have taken courts, and lawyers, etc. Not worth it.

    I've seen companies put some policies in place that are legally questionable but it would cost us too much to litigate, so employees deal with them.

    The left has **tried** to make union membership look more appealing.

    I've worked with UAW guys. The only ones who like the union are the ones who would get fired tomorrow for being useless. Everyone else sayd that the union does nothing for them.

    tying it in with medical and dental plans, but I still don't see the advantage; my wife pays union dues, but still has to pay for health insurance. So it's like paying for health insurance twice, plus the joy
    of having some of the money go to the Democrats.

    The Dems are the party of organized crime. So think of it as your "insurance" against them.

    That has nothing to do with the Democrats and that is the way it is. a lot of the GOP are just as greedy and idiots. The old saying is what comes around goes around.

    For once, I think Aaron is right here. Most Unions make their money from
    their members, and most of them put a lot of money into politics backing Democrat candidates, who gladly accept the donations.

    It shouldn't have anything to do with politics, period, but that is one
    place where Unions invest so it does.
