[Marxism-Thaxis] Comments: UAW's King: Stronger union is being born (2)
archivefolder wrote: Replying to osiris: Replying to KG_One: The UAW supports the Employee Free Choice Act, which is proposed legislation that would make it easier for workers to form unions. But the legislation has faced strong opposition in Congress. If EFCA makes it easier to join a union, how easy would it be for those same people to LEAVE that union when they are not being represented? If it's all about the workers, it should work both ways. If King really wants to accomplish anything, he needs to make the the UAW an example of what should be, not what is. Solidarity House needs a thurough cleaning and delousing. I have no issue with this. 8/2/2010 12:05:37 PM Replying to osiris:blockquoteReplying to KG_One:blockquoteThe UAW supports the Employee Free Choice Act, which is proposed legislation that would make it easier for workers to form unions.

Over generalizing like this makes you sound like an idiot, with no real grasp of the topic being discussed. It also hints to some deep seeded repressed jealousy to a person who made a good wage performing a job that required minimal education at the time. any response you utter is now null and void. Why would I be jealous of UAW workers who now make $12 an hour before taxes and union dues? And the only problem in this state is the entitled mentality of our least skilled workers; no one deserves to be in the middle class just because they have a job. If you guys want to earn a better living, try aligning your skills to someone other than an illiterate peasant in a 3rd world country. 8/2/2010 12:02:51 PM Replying to CrazyBryan:blockquoteReplying to EbonyTatas:blockquoteYou uneducated drunks/blockquotebr / This makes you part of the problem, not the solution.

I worked 30 years. I have a love/hate view of the UAW. They knew exactly what they were doing all through the 30 years I was there. I begged the UAW to focus on the customer 25 years ago. They refused. Were we overpaid? probably. If you think that's wrong. I know of a chairman who made 4 times more than the line workers at doing nothing but screwing

College educated? Why then you DESERVE the big bucks, fancy cars, and vacation villa for simply showing up and putting your feet on your desk. Did you, by chance, work your way thru college? Have Momsy and Daddy pay for it? Or use my tax dollars for a loan that you have no intention of repaying? DESERVE has nothing to do with anything. A college education guarantees nothing other than OPPORTUNITY that might not be available otherwise. You assume big bigs, etc., by virtue of a degree alone, that simply isn't true. Have you heard about the job market? It's called sarcasmand my point was just that, a college education entitles you to nothing more than an opportunity. Unfortunately, I have met far too many pampered idiots that believe they are owed for having sat in a classroom engrossed in a fantasy about the student 1 row over. 8/2/2010 12:26:44 PM Replying to LivinInTheBurbs:blockquoteWell, I think we found the entiltlement mentality.

If you are indeed a UAW member have no no shame that you would air your dirty laundry here?? I don't like being unable to be present when votes are counted for a contract or election of officers. I don't like waiting for months on contract negotiations to complete and then be given a half hour review of the highlights befor being forced to vote. I don't like being told that we will have to walk out but that I am not alowed to know what issue is on the table that will possible require this action. Idno't
