FAIL !
Complete & utter fabrication . If i was gonna tell an outright lie like you just did i'd atleast do the bare bones research on how members contributions & employer pension payments are handled before spewing complete lies about why you are anti union .
Unions recieve a small percentage of the members hourly wages plus the members monthly dues , they do not recieve members pension contributions , pension contributions are sent directly to whichever investment fund the union & employers use to manage the pension fund , not to the " Union Boss" as you claim , you got that shit from the tv movie about Jimmy Hoffas scamming in the 60's .
It would be pretty damm hard for you to watch your " Union Boss" steal everybodies pension money when the pensions you mentioned all fall under federal mandate where 3rd partys handel all pension contributions & the union never has access to pension funds .
What union local ripped your pension off & what was the union bussiness agents name ?
I hold a seat on the Executive board that oversees the Michigan Building Trades Pension Fund & Health & Welfare so your claims are easily viewed, union local # & business agents name please .
So your saying you were a member of a Steamfitters union where you worked for hourly pay as Fitter , then also worked out of the office as a salesman ? Sounds like an extremely small & mismanaged company because large reputable union shops have non union sales staff paid via salary & commission, union Fitters cant be paid via salary or commission & are paid hourly only ,that anti union shit your claiming your were victimized by just isnt adding up , not by a long shot .
What Fitters local # were you represented by & what is your classification within that local ?
The only tradesmen i know who didnt make much more income working for a union shop vs a scab shop were all slugs who couldnt keep pace , or workers who were unqualified & didnt know the trade , in 40 yrs ive never seen a kick ass tradesman go back working scab after he worked union , all the highly skilled tradesmen are snatched up & highly compensated way above union scale , the slugs get the shit work & the lowest pay scale allowed which isnt much more than scab wages , but they dont know shit so their lucky to get paid at all .
And the most telling & truthfull statement you made out of that entire mess , instead of making up stories how unions ripped you off & forced you to do 2 jobs at once , all the while surrounded by idiots where your the only tradesman who knows his job why not just tell the truth , the truth being that you hate unions because they support Democratic Politicans who support labor ,instead of the anti labor Republican party you lean twords so you claim they ripped you off .
The unions you hate wouldn't need to support the Democratic pro labor politicians you hate so much if the ABC's PAC & lobby didnt spend hundreds of millions of dollars every election supporting anti labor Republican Party members , tell your company to stop spending huge amounts of their profits backing the anti labor ABC & give you a raise
The ABC lobby throws 10x the money at anti labor Republicans campaigns then unions can afford to spend but your outraged by the unions expenditure , most union members understand the need to combat the ABC lobby & support pro labor Democrats with their votes , it dont take a genious to figure out to support politicans who support you making better wages.
The more you talk the easier to see your hatred of unions is based on your political views & is not based upon union membership , you hate unions because you hate Democrats .
