As ONE that had been a MEMBER of A UNION, (I.A.T.S.E.,Locals# 363- Reno, NV. And 12-Columbus,OH.), the situation of WHAT is transpiring in these “UNITED” STATES of AMERICA has merit on BOTH SIDES. But, those that USE the WORKERS for their nefarious reasons makes the transition of these LAWS’ intentions MOST INTERESTING…
Is “IT” : The “NEEDS” of the many, or, the GREEDS of the MANY…
That ‘outweigh’ the NEEDS of the few?
The types of growths that UNIONISM has ‘ACHIEVED’ throughout its HISTORY is a ‘STUDY’ in the GREATNESSES of AMERICAN “SPIRIT”, and “CROWD” MANIPULATIVITY.
The long, and short of the “RIGHT-to-WORK” legislation, currently “being DECIDED” on, by Michigan Governor RICK SNYDER, (www.michigan.gov/gov), has made HIS STATE the latest FOCAL POINT of “HOW” BIG BUSINESS IS manipulating their “bottom-line” DARKER via the working PEOPLE’S seeing theirs fading. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/job-creation-debate-illustrates-volley-of-claims-over-right-to-work-as-michigan-decision-nears/2012/12/10/9f780f72-4330-11e2-8c8f-fbebf7ccab4e_story.html).
Many have NO IDEA of what, the term , “RIGHT-to-WORK”*, actually means. The “prominent” CONFUSIONARY, JUSTINUS PREAUX-CAAN, ( Holder of the DEGREE: “The ODDEST-of-FELLOWS”, of the FULCRUM-LEVEL Institute, located in SANDY SHORES, CALIFORNIA.), has been slightly vocal, when asked to clarify what he sees in this historic vote. So, this editor has filled the appropriate spaces with common informations from across the Internet’s vast “knowledge” arena. First, and foremost, let’s begin AT “the BEGINNING”: the TAFT-HARTLEY ACT, successor to the NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS ACT.

After looking over the informations I’d assembled, ( I’m my OWN editor, I can’t “afford” another’s opinion of my work.), ‘Oddest Fellow’ Preaux-Caan assessed… “YYEEEEPPPP!”. But, told me that he HAD to excuse himself, because he had to dash to his TRIPLETS’ School since his Wife had just been notified that “SCHOOL HAD BEEN CANCELED(!?!)”, and they were “JUST” getting told so, due to UNDERSTAFFINGS.
The TWO BEST thoughts I’ve seen published are from the WASHINGTON POST
article that started this:
““People don’t understand the labor movement,” said protester Sharon Mowers, 54, of Lansing, a United Auto Workers member and General Motors employee. “They don’t understand the sacrifices people made to get us to this point.”
Indeed(!), MATEWAN saw my Grandfather’s BROTHER get EVISCERATED by a run-away conveyor belt, cut to shut down production for a time.
And:
” “As they say in sports, the atmosphere in the locker room gets a lot better when the team’s winning,” he said.*
Sen. John Proos, a Republican from St. Joseph who voted for the right-to-work bills last week, said opponents had a right to voice their anger but predicted it would fade as the shift in policy brings more jobs to Michigan.”
* Coming from the State that contains The DETROIT LIONS NFL team franchise.
Well , to ALL those reading…
HAPPY HOLY DAYS / Happy Holidays!
