Taking the best of something and using it doesn't make it the worst of it's kind...They're aspects of Communism and Socialism that are very grand and magnanimous. The only difference between the two is one gives the military all the power and the other the people all the power. The problem with both is, the people at the top have all the power. At least in our system, you have a shot at doing well for yourself, by yourself. Our brand of government has parts of Socialism and Communism built in.

You are mixing up things here. You can be for democracy as a form of government while think that a more socialistic economy is more humanistic. Other countries in the past like guatemala and chile had voted in socialist governments but did not allow the military to have all the power.

You dont believe that the people at the top have in the power IN OUR COUNTRY?? LOL, we are ruled by the 1% and have a government of , by and for the corporate elite. For them state corporatism needs to be saved and maintained. But for the rest of us it is the jungle of the hyper free market and all its harmful effects on the 99%.

As for Pope's local, there is no financial disaster in local 805. Those were untrue election rumors and allegations to disparage her record.

Dude, I posted her LM2's on this site. You can't BS that. It's public information on the Dept of Labor website. Assets down, spending up, membership down. Does it get any more clear? As for Paff, your saying he he takes only 1 messily paycheck from TDU only and not any other TDU organization or TDU source?

She makes what $100,000 a year. As for membership being down, look at every union in this country. Same thing here in Local 804. Look at the national Teamsters, membership has dropped too. It is called greedy companies not hiring or laying off our brothers and sisters and forcing the rest of us to "do more with less". As for her assets (I will skip the obvious sexist joke), her local just finished trying to organize Fresh Direct and yes it did cost lots of money. It was an expensive risk but unions HAVE to grow. Her membership loves and respects her. Your just mad at her for challenging jr?? Stop the attacks on fellow teamsters.

I doesn't bother me that she ran. Do you notice I don't say anything about Gagre? And that guy took second. But her 1.7 million dollar spending spree for organizing made zero change in membership. Actually I misspoke, it reduced membership. Not every local took a hit in membership. My local increased and added 3 new barns. It didn't cost no 1.7 million to do. Maybe we stole the 200 members from Sandy? She does make just over 100k (notice TDU changed to a 150k list?) but that's for 1050 members. I guess my Principle Officer should make $612,750?
