Kev3188,
Duly noted and agree. But who will lead this from the bottom up movement? IMO... The GL & the District must lead and educate? If not them who?

As cliche as it sounds, it starts with one person talking face-to-face with another. Someone telling their story about how representation has made a positive difference in their life makes for a much more compelling case than any glossy mailer from Placid Harbor ever could. It takes more energy, but the reward will be greater. Of course, it's imperative to have correct information, but even that is something that is easily done at the grassroots level. I'm not saying cut the GL out completely; rather, the masses need to take the lead with the GL following/supporting that...
Cargo,
You are correct... the GOP would love to eliminate Unions completely, and what better way to do that, than to require a Federal Mandate declaring every State a right to work (for less) State!
Do you see the irony here? They preach downsizing Government Influence on Business, while simultaneously covertly supporting Government intervention into workers rights! The hypocritical nature of this agenda is clear... stomp on the middle-class to allow billionaires to outsource and invest the proceeds in foreign countries!
