Union jobs pay good, good benefits, and seniority means something, when an opening for a job position comes up, and their are a dozen guys that can do the job. the guy with the seniority get the spot. not uncle Jeb's brother or superintendent son. like it would be on the other side of the fence. Union jobs are disliked most by folks, that don't have a chance of ever having one. like Hlleonard said, a union worker don't have to have Government assistance to provide for their family. I think I read somewhere, that Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana were the top users of Government assistance, and all three are right to work states, run by Republican conservatives. funny how they cry about folks getting food stamps, and support right to work law, and low paying jobs.

The last several years has seen weakening unions, a push for right to work laws, lower pay scales and more people dependent of government assistance and the right wing wants more of the same.... 2+2 never equals 4 to these guys who put the blame on the folks at the bottom... Better wages= more people being less dependent on government handouts and a better overall economy but they are blinded by the constant barrage of BS by the fox newes of the country... I have a good bit less confidence in our president than some do but mostly because I think AHA has done damage to those who earn their living in order to provide healthcare for those who don't have it but AHA is here and I suspect here to stay, the right wing is making noise about doing away with it but I think that is just noise..... Anybody that bothers to look will find out red states are the biggest users of AHA and it would not be in the best interest of republican leadership to snatch that out from under the same folks who voted them in office...
