Companies making money is the basic building block of our nation. Unions have eroded our country’s ability to make money by demanding more and more and more. Those costs are passed on to the consumer, and all of a sudden America is no longer competitive in the global economy! Our cost per employee in unionized industry makes us uncompetitive against foreign industry – So whose giving our jobs away to overseas workers? Stop the us – them mentality and remember we’re all Americans working to restore a strong American economy! There is no longer a need for unions. If you think your union officers aren’t living the good life, ask them where they had their last international meeting… which resort?

I love comments like this one. A couple of responses. First, we don’t apologize (or hide) that we’re a company. We’re proud of what we do both for our clients and the employees of our clients. We make money (and we don’t apologize for that, either) when we help our clients create better workplaces. If we weren’t good at that we’d be out of business. The facts are that we do more for working people than any union and we’re proud of that fact. We have many former organizers who consult for our clients and know unions from the inside who will be the first to tell you this.

As far as getting paid to spread lies about EFCA, we have not been paid one cent to say anything about EFCA. Frankly, EFCA would probably help our business. We hate EFCA and the other regulatory changes coming down the pike because they are bad for working people, bad for our clients and bad for our economy. They are good for only one group: union leaders. They’re not even good for current union members – but union leaders don’t give a flip about members anyway. Now THAT’S the facts.

What a great concept – the union can supply free beer at the local hall or pub, set up a pay phone or phone bank and help all of the proposed unit vote. Or even better, let the union oversee the distribution of secure voting ID or PIN numbers to members so it will be secure.

On a serious note, I think part of this is the NLRB’s efforts to get remote workers the ability to participate.

Now there is a safe and secure idea. Web based and telephone voting. I wonder if we will be able to use that sort of system for the next Presidential election?

You know how much money this Compnay, yes this is a Company, and profits are its bottom line, gets paid to spread these lies about EFCA for their sponcers? This Company could care less about employees (thats you and me) or about (free elections). There concern like most Comapany’s is MONEY. MONEY for owners and share holders. Employees are just a vehicle to get them more of what they crave, MONEY. Employees in their eyes are a replaceable commodity and if employees try to join together for mutual aid and protection, employers will build a nice neat case aginst employees so employees look to be the bad guy and fire them! Now thats the facts.

Their logic? The NLRB voting process is one that works. Neither side can really manipulate the mechanics of such a simple and transparent process. And in most every election i’ve been involved with, turnout is over 90%. Yeah, we need to fix that!
