The only time I had a union "securing my wages and benefits", the slackers kept me from getting a full time job.



Watched the largest local plant go broke after going union, they'd gone 30+ years without missing a delivery date or having a major quality problem. In the next 16 years, they missed dates, and had quality issues. The plant was closed, and the jobs went overseas.



Worked in a sheet metal fab plant, watched Peterbilt Madison go on strike, over a $20 insurance increase. Stayed out from April to Thanksgiving. Cost Peterbilt about 50,000 truck sales. The local sheet metal union picketed our plant, tried to keep me from my job. About 5 years later, Peterbilt Madison closed. Funny thing, those clowns never got their $20. And they lost a ton of wages. But hey, they got $100 strike pay!


I'll pass on the union. And voting democrat kills your 401k, your budget, and your personal liberty. But hey, the union officials and the politicians make bank.
