O.T. RIGHT TO WORK!

[newmanhead]

Very good. Michigan will now be a right to work state. The unions will not be able to protect workers who are not willing, or qualified to work.

However Obama will now take care of everyone since the Uinons are dead

yes let those non union people work for walmart part ime with  no health ins and let the state you live in pick up the tab for medicaid and food stamps
yes lets have everyone work for companies like the hostess co
blame the unions for everything while the owners siphoned monies from their pension funds
better yet let em play in the nhl
where revenues to be divided with players are up better than 20% yet owners want the players to take a 25% pay cut

[Mel from Moline]

I wonder why it is so any people think its so great for OTHER people to work for free. Rich get richer? While unions have certainly had their moments of over reach, without them, companies would want people to work for 5$ an hour if they could get away with it. Terrible.

These guys are brainwashed by Rupert Murdoch to believe it's all the power of the unions that elects Democrats, so they cheer any setback for unions, but as the last election proves these dazed and confused goofs are utterly clueless as to what the real constituency of the D party has become.

More truth in that than you might think, since the Federal government and you the US taxpayer has to pick up the costs of pension plans for all these companies (like the airlines) that go bust to break their unions and get out from under their pension obligations.

I was leaving Walmart about an hour ago and as I walked out I saw the BA of the union from my previous employer walking in. The same BA who was calling for a Walmart boycott just a few weeks ago. They can slam the non union people for free riding, but the union people do the same thing when they shop non-union. Oh the hypocrisy!

[Louie Weedelbaum]

Ask the people of Long Island how they feel about unions.  People were kept in the dark for an extra week or two because crews from other states who were brought in to help were told they had to wait for a "union" crew to look at the job first.  In some cases they were flat out turned away because they were non-union.

How does the union brass, or anyone with any sense for that matter, justify keeping children and the lederly in the dark without heat and gasoline all for the union cause?

In an emergency the union showed their true colors....them first the customers second.

Drug smoking idiot republiCONS are all that live here.

I don't understand how you people became so ignorant but have enough intelligence to operate a computer/smartphone.

Protecting slackers is NOT the issue with the unions or the reason for this bill.

Busting the union is the goal by placing financial pressure on them. The nonunion workers will benefit from union negotiated benefits.

Without having to pay the dues that are the foundation of the union's ability to represent it's members.

Live by the sword, die by the sword. May your children be fully employed and dirt poor at the same time.

Welcome to the United States of China!

I guess this TV station from Alabma is lying as well:

http://www.waff.com/story/19981857/some-nonunion-ala-crews-turned-away-from-sandy-recovery

This stuff happens quite frequently so why you take such offense to it is tough to comprehend.  It's the way "business" is done in america.  If you think the only guys ripping off America are rich white rrepublican bankers you're nuts.  They are ripping off America but they have many acomplices.

Alabama?   Are you friggin kidding me?

The same state that railroaded former Democratic Governor Don Siegelman to jail?

The same state where METH is more popular than voting against your own economic best interest?

State I.Q. average is 32.

Welcome to the United States of China!  

You're last two lines make plenty of sense.  With the debt rising daily we are just pummeling our kids and with us constantly being bailed out by China we will eventually be their colony.  However you have a one sided view of everything in feeling that only one party is right on everything.  That type of slavish affection is certainly not healthy.  I believe both parties have some good ideas but I also believe the majority in both parties are only looking out for themselves and how much money they can rape the American taxpayer for.

So if somebody from Alabama says something it doesn't count?  You show your ignorance when you make this type of statement.    You also completely ignored the story from Newsday but of course that would mean you'd look foolish again.

Didn't the Democrats run as the party of choice? Being a union supporter, do you only purchase union made on every purchase you make? Isn't this similar to asking the rich to support the poor and giving them a free ride?

They talk about forcing guys to sign a union deal before work can begin.  If you can honestly say that in a time of disaster and emergency that you think putting union brotherhood BEFORE the basic needs of children and elderly then you are just not human.

So Newsday is a paper with a conservative angle?  Step back from the Kool Aid.  Even the most hardend right winger would have to take Newsday's word over Snopes...whatever that is.
