The only Union I ever worked for sold me out! I live in a town with a Ford plant. The Union sold out and allowed the company to hire "temps" in at lower wages with no benefits etc. See it all the time. Unions ain't what they used to be...A lot of people (most of the working class) were taught to demonize organized labour -you can't even say "union" in the majority of places without being called a commie bastard or have some other slander thrown your way... Hell, it may even be against forum rules to say something about unions?
