[QUOTE="MC4YOU2, post: 2470945, member: 5485"] Allowing the dismantling of public sector unions is the stepping stone to weaker Teamster representation. Stagnant minimum wage, poor health care and other benefits taken away from workers also play a part. When labor wins in one area, (say FMLA for example) it allows for a stronger bargaining position at contract time for everyone, since they start from higher ground. A loss in one area causes a loss all around in the same way. When you see a neighboring state go RTW, your union reps are automatically having to do more with less resources. When the Scott Walker types sell the non union philosophy to voters who are making $7.25 an hour, it's a stepping stone to attack your benefits. It's coming too, unless workers turn the boat around. If you're waiting for "the union" to fix things for you, without your support, you're not realizing that you are the union. Dues monies are never spent on supporting political candidates, as it's illegal. That's what pacs do. [/QUOTE]
