Union officials are pimps. Union members are their whores. Flame away.
Also, I'm so tired of this "GM paid no taxes," crap. GM paid no taxes for perfectly legitimate reasons, mainly that they had losses and deductions that carried over from previous years.
Fair - the new four-letter "F" word.
These people are jealous, plain and simple. People that are in unions should look at where your union presidents and other officials live; what they drive; and where they eat. How many of them wear a Rolex, Breitling, or Omega watch?

They say I'm jealous when I mention the $7k profit sharing check they got last year, their COLA raises, free health insurance, 20 years for fully vested pensions, free health care for retirees, free tuition, and the newest kick in the pants $75k lump sum if you want to buy out of the union HC plan and go on the salary HC plan.
I'm the jealous one.
I'm all for unions, collective bargaining, workers' rights - all of that stuff. I just think the government should be out of it completely.
