    Then a decent wage to raise your family on. I can't understand why it's alright for a ceo to be make a good living but, a working man can not earn a decent wage in some people's eyes. How pathetic.

      According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, between 2009 and 2010 unions lost 612,000 members - a loss of 339,400 on private payrolls and a loss of 273,000 in government employment.

      As a result, the percent of the total workforce that belonged to unions fell from 12.3 in 2009 to 11.9 in 2010. On private payrolls it fell from 7.2 to 6.9 percent and in government employment it fell from 37.4 to 36.2 percent.
      You guys go sell your "unions are the downfall of the USA" BULLSHYT somewhere else. Only a complete IDIOT would believe or repeat that a whopping 12% of the entire workforce is dragging this country down. And these are people not making million dollar salaries, these are just average working class people making working class wages.

      By the way, for the stupidest imbeciles to ever walk the planet, try and figure out how much the top 1% has gained in their overall wealth and then compare it to the other 99%, of which those 12% union members are a part of.

      Rush Limbaugh has you imbeciles pegged perfectly: You truly CANNOT FIX STUPID!

        Kidrock, the problem is more like CEOs making more money than GOD and everyone getting to live off the crap they leave behind when they scrape off the soles of their shoes.

        We may all be Americans, but we don't all live in the same AMERICA. There's one America for the wealthiest on their tiny island of luxury and splendor, and then there's the vast ocean of below average wages, hand to mouth, paycheck to paycheck and one step away from going under for good the rest of us are floating on.

          As far as the picture posted, kinda looks like Obama is touring yet another bombed out hole left in the ground by BUSH. You want to know who blew your retirement account, your savings, your pay raise and your tax cut, go talk to the world's most infamous and arrogant free mass murderer down in his mansion in Texas.

          BTW, have you guys heard the news? G Dub can't travel to certain nations any more because if he does, he's going to jail for the crimes he committed while in office. I.E. starting a war using lies and deceit, killing thousands without just cause, and basically lying to everyone in the world.

          Bombs cost money. War costs money. And baby Bush brought us both. Thanks, G Dub, for the memories and the rest of our lives paying for your stupidity.

              And your going to jail for false defamation of character! And while you're in there I'm sure Dubya is going to try and fix stupid by waterboarding the sh!t out of you!!! lol

              Seriously the vote was unamimous about going to war with Iraq, but next time we'll just let them knock down the entire Times Square ( excluding Mosques of course)!!

              A devout liberal as you are, you will always blame someone else instead of seeking the actual truth.

                Sir, the debt of student loans is greater than the credit card debt. When your liberal left wing education system rakes in three quarters of a trill in profits each year for these anti establishment universities who charge fifty to a hundred thousand annual tuitions to teach the very things that you have been professing on here, then why do you overlook that? Name one thing that Obama or any liberal has done to raise the wages of the common working person the last three years.

                Instead of the government trying to take money in the name of larger government and appeasing it's union buddies who are rich enough to buy protesters and support violence and revolution what are the unions doing? Would you believe possibly that they only want to expand unionization for the sole purposes of supporting the Democrat party and gaining more power themselves? Don't even try to deny that Richard Trumpa is a communist.

                Not only were you dropped when you were born, you were slammed!!!

                  It's the rich who pay the union workers because most others can't. You can't find any union workers around here right now. A lot of them are on leave, traveling around the country biting the hands that feed them. Some are getting paid and I hear they are getting free food also. I guess that was in their contract. There is greed all around,I'll admit, but not everyones company owners are wealthy. There are some good honest people who provide jobs. How many union shops are gone now? I worked for a union for 17 years, and i've seen it all. Those who lost their jobs would love to be back at the company working for half of what they were getting. And it would still be a decent wage. But it was either pay us what we want or we will walk. Well, nuff said.

                      For 17 years you sucked everything a Union could get for you-----
                      I worked with many people like yourself........
                      Now you are a big time businessman......
                      You want to blame Govt. and Unions for all the ills beset upon our country-------
                      So sit back and enjoy all the Write offs and tax breaks that the Govt affords you and your family.......Somewhat ironic isn't it.......LOL

                        I worked in a union and was proud of it. Made good money but nobody was ever satisfied. Always wanted more of everything. Now all they want is a job. I am a co -owner of a small family business and all we get from the government are bills you wouldn't know anything about. Some only see one side of everything. It's not all peaches and cream. Unions aren't so bad, its the greed that comes with them. It's also nice to negotiate a contract with friends rather than your enemies. I'm not so negative that I'm not proud of everything we have fought for in this country. But there are two sides to most of our problems. We still have the best country in the world. GO AMERICA!!!!!

                              Stupid??? Perhaps--by your standards??--Who knows???? People get rich off the backs of poor people. Could co's survive if they only employed Wealthy intelligent people ????

                              It is oft said that the rich will always need the poor---But why do you need so many???

                              You may not be aware of this but there are stupid --poor Republicans--Just not in your neighborhood!!!!

                                OK, I will change stupid to ignorant. This class war fare junk makes me yawn. I am tired of listening to people bellyache about their pay and all the nasty rich people. My first job was at 14 scrubbing out tubs. Never did occur to me that the government should get involved with weekly pay. Liberals are simply walking contradictions. We now have a bunch of spoiled brats. And a bunch of youngsters duped into believing the colleges who recruit them into education that does them no good in the real world. Oh, and then charge them a king's ransom in school debt. Yep the liberals run colleges and teach them all about the liberal way. Doesn't seem to be working.
