I get paid through boosters. Between baseball and football we get an agreed rate per athlete. We train approximately 160 athletes an average of three times per week for just one school.

LOL.  My point is that without unions from the 1930's we'd still have low wages and long hours......and this means the middle class wouldnt have been the consumers they needed to be to grow the economy and contibute to other business's success.......ie: going out to eat, buying TV's...etc

wrong

unions hurt wages by wanting people t not get educated and get paid over market

unions did not make wages rise

witness henry ford

wags rise when productivity of worker rises due to capital accumulation

read some basic austrain economics, which is economics, and put down the political science aka keynes bs

Who would have ever guessed that Fox News would lie to it's viewers?

We know there are profoundly stupid people in the teabag party, some of whom have apparently dedicated their life to posting lies on this board so I don't really expect honestly or even intelligence from them but come on ...... Fox News I expected better from you

Quote
"Unfortunately for Mr. Crowder, a look at the video broadcast on the Sean Hannity show appears to show quite clearly that he left out an important section of the footage when he put together his edit. A section of the Fox News broadcast preserved by the Web site Mediaite shows that Mr. Hannity’s producers at Fox News started the clip five seconds earlier than Mr. Crowder did. What the extra footage reveals is the man who punched Mr. Crowder being knocked to the ground seconds before and then getting up and taking a swing at the comedian."

NO!

Crowder had his back turned, when the guy hit the ground. That guy got up and started swinging at Crowder.

Furthermore, Hannity didn't leave that part out. He showed that video multiple times, with that part being on the broadcast.

Then, there's the matter of the black hot dog vendor, who got his stuff destroyed and called racial slurs. Let's see the left try and justify THAT ONE.

And, it appears you're not interested in the guy who grabs the back of Crowder's jacket and tries to yank him to the ground, AFTER the altercation with the first dude, who hit Crowder in the mouth.

If Crowder was truly assaulted then we know, being the pathetic attention whore that he is, that he will press charges

If he doesn't press charges then we know he is a fraud, pussy and pathetic liar......not that any of those things would disqualify him from being on FAUX NEWS.

So, by that logic, if I punch you in the mouth and crack your grill and you press charges, you're an attention whore. ::)

Besides, Crowder stated that he will press charges, unless that guy meets him in a one-on-one fight, with the winner, getting the charity of his choice a nice donation at the loser's expense.

Worse off? Hardly!!


Try employees in right-to-work (RTW) states having up to $4300 more in purchasing power and the top 5 states (in terms of low unemployment) being RTW states, with the state highest in unemployment being forced union states.

History shows that Michigan's citizens will soon be saying that the state's new "Right to Work" law is "a good thing for Michigan," National Right to Work Pres. Mark Mix explains.....


"Indiana, I believe, has led the nation in new private sector job growth since they passed the Right to Work law in February. The economic development department out in Indiana has indicated there have been 90 new deals of companies that have come and said 'we're interested - now that you're in a Right to Work state - to either expand or relocate in your state.' So, it has had a dramatic impact on the economic activity in the state of Indiana."

Mix notes that workers in Right to Work states not only tend to have as much as $4,300 more purchasing power, but also are more likely to have health insurance:

"And if you look at the other 22 Right to Work states, you find when it relates to private sector job growth, when it relates to increase in private sector per-capita purchasing power, or adjusted for cost of living, you find those states are doing much better.

"So, there's lots of data out there that talks about this, including a study from the George Mason Department of Economics. They did a study when, adjusting wages for cost of living, they found workers in Right to Work states have about $2,300 more to spend than workers in forced-unionism states.

"Dr. Barry Poulsen, from the University of Colorado, did a study using a similar study about cost of living. He found that there was a $4,300 advantage in Right to Work states for purchasing power for workers who were in Right to Work states versus states that allowed forced unionism."

"In fact, the percentage of workers covered by healthcare increase dramatically in Right to Work states and decrease in states that don't have Right to Work."

"So the metrics are out there. But most importantly, this is about individual freedom in the workplace."

Studies show that Right to Work states also have lower unemployment due to their more business-friendly environment, Mix says:

"Looking at the Bureau of Census data, and looking at the Bureau of Economic Analysis data, and then looking at some regional think-tanks and economic forecasting statistical aggregators, we find this data.

"It's pretty straight forward. In The Washington Times today (Tuesday), actually, there's a chart where it talks about the lowest states with unemployment. The top five states with the lowest unemployment are Right to Work states. The bottom five are forced-unionism states.

"In the standpoint of places to do business, CNBC ranks the states on the business climate. The top five are Right to Work states, the bottom are non-Right to Work states.

Heck, the auto industry is going south.....LITERALLY, as more car companies are moving to southern right-to-work states.

The motives are obvious: Companies want to save money and employees want to be able to work, without their due going to politicians/causes they don't like.

If unions get out of hand, they want the option of getting non-union workers to continue business.

Obama and the Dems call it "right to work for less". In a way, they're right. But, if a company is struggling and an employees is willing to take a pay cut or fewer hours, to avoid getting whacked altogether, that should be that employee's call, not that of a union.

No.  Very few jobs in america have labor unions. Most are free-enterprise and set their own standards for wages/benefits. Also only a minor amount of states are "Right to work" states. I think 12 out of 50.
 And their results are not doing as good as mcway has posted.  See link:

Michigan just became the 24th state to become "right-to-work". That's just under HALF, hardly a minor amount of states.

You used a link from union site; I used one, citing a RTW official. So, that's a wash. It's all about, in the end, the unemployment numbers, wages, benefits, and costs of living.

Yes. I agree. And if im allowed to increase company profits....one way to do that is to lower payroll wages. If im the boss and answer to no one whos to stop me?

Yet, if that keeps up, then I go to a competitor who will pay me more. Word-of-mouth advertising still works well. When it gets out that a certain competitor of your former boss is paying more for doing the same job, it's exodus time.

Besides, happy employees tend to be productive ones. I've never had my wages cut, when a company was doing well. In fact, I got quite a nice Christmas bonus, when one place where I worked did excellent that particular quarter.

Right now every company has a hundred applications on the desk. So you are expendable. Until it becomes a "Workers market" where theirs a shortage of workers...then wages will stay low.




Well, then you are depending on the niceness and compassion of upper management. Some like to have a back-up knowing they have a job to go to.

Its the right of every employer to decide what jobs he offers, what wages he offers, and who he hires.    Its the right of every individual to decide how they spend their  money.     Its the right of every employee to decide what job they are willing to work, what wage they are willing to accept, and who they are willing to work for.  Its the right off all individuals to organize and campaign/negotiate for changes in the world they are fit. Whethe employers or employees both are humans with the right to freedom.

I see both sides, but not as an employer. I've been in mid/upper management and dealt with the contracts of certain employees. The amount of money the company has determined if those contracts get renewed and/or upgraded vs. their being reduced or terminated.

Mix notes that workers in Right to Work states not only tend to have as much as $4,300 more purchasing power, but also are more likely to have health insurance:

"And if you look at the other 22 Right to Work states, you find when it relates to private sector job growth, when it relates to increase in private sector per-capita purchasing power, or adjusted for cost of living, you find those states are doing much better.

"So, there's lots of data out there that talks about this, including a study from the George Mason Department of Economics. They did a study when, adjusting wages for cost of living, they found workers in Right to Work states have about $2,300 more to spend than workers in forced-unionism states.

"Dr. Barry Poulsen, from the University of Colorado, did a study using a similar study about cost of living. He found that there was a $4,300 advantage in Right to Work states for purchasing power for workers who were in Right to Work states versus states that allowed forced unionism."

"In fact, the percentage of workers covered by healthcare increase dramatically in Right to Work states and decrease in states that don't have Right to Work."

"So the metrics are out there. But most importantly, this is about individual freedom in the workplace."

Studies show that Right to Work states also have lower unemployment due to their more business-friendly environment, Mix says:

"Looking at the Bureau of Census data, and looking at the Bureau of Economic Analysis data, and then looking at some regional think-tanks and economic forecasting statistical aggregators, we find this data.

"It's pretty straight forward. In The Washington Times today (Tuesday), actually, there's a chart where it talks about the lowest states with unemployment. The top five states with the lowest unemployment are Right to Work states. The bottom five are forced-unionism states.

"In the standpoint of places to do business, CNBC ranks the states on the business climate. The top five are Right to Work states, the bottom are non-Right to Work states.

Heck, the auto industry is going south.....LITERALLY, as more car companies are moving to southern right-to-work states.




why do you think they are moving south? wouldn't be lower costs due to lower wages.UE is lower because the wages are lower, more people can be hired, this isn't raising the standard of living. In fact it is lowering it.

Wages are lower in RTW, more accidents, poorer education, less benefits.

Cost of living is generally lower in areas you described as well I wonder of anyone has ever done a study taking into account cost of living?

not sure but we know that wages go down in those states so that is peripheral point. what it does indicate is that RTW states have lower wages, which makes sense.

Wages go down. But, your dollar goes further in RTW states. That's why I mentioned the $4300 in purchasing power. Not to mention, many of these RTW states have NO STATE TAXES (i.e. Florida, Texas). So, more of that money is going in the pockets of the workers, instead of state governments' coffers.

That's why military members tend to either change their home of record to places like Texas or Florida, once they get stationed there. Or, if they are from those areas originally, they keep that state as their home of record. Even if they get stationed somewhere with high state taxes like Maryland or Connecticut, as long as a state like Texas or Florida is their home of record, their incomes aren't taxed at the rates of where their current duty stations are located.

I live in Michigan.  I hope when someone at a Ford, GM or Chrysler plant decides NOT to pay their dues and accept all the benefits that they are made an example of and beaten within an inch of their life or worse.  The only good republican is a DEAD republican.

http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/41332_Another_Breitbart_Fake_Outrage_Bites_the_Dust-_Crowder_Admits_He_Shoved_Union_Members

What bites the dust is this ridiculous claim. If the union members are destroying the tent, with people inside of them who could get injured, THEY (not Crowder) are the aggressors. The folks for Americans for Prosperity got the license/permit to be in that spot. Do these folks at "littlegreenfootballs" really expect for people to just stand by and let a tent, filled with equipment, collapse on them without trying to defend themselves from those destroying their property?

Those union goons have no business, trying to destroy their tent. And NONE OF THIS shows that Crowder shoved the guy that cracked him in the mouth.

Not to mention, there are the little matters of the guy who yanked Crowder to the ground AFTER that fight with the first union goon....AND the black hot dog vendor, who got his merchandise destroyed and called racial slurs.

What do the folks of "littlegreenfootballs" have to say about that?

UNIONS CREATE FAT LAZY RETARDS LIKE THE ONES SEEN IN THIS CLIP, they want to be overpaid for under working, they have ruined first world economies and are responsible for the rapid demise of the first world.  First World productivity is now fucked because of Unions, manufacturers and Business have taken their JOBS elsewhere because the ridiculous demands of UNIONS would have seen them go bankrupt otherwise.  It won't be long now until China is running things, thanks to these fat overpaid lazy Union Fuckups!

The right-to-work law says you CANNOT force someone to join a union and pay due, as a condition of employment.

Unions aren't being banned. Forcing people to join them (and pay dues) IS.

If unions were so great, people would be lining up to be a part of them, NOT fleeing them in droves.
Hear, Hear - If Unions weren't infiltrated by Mobsters and Thugs and actually benefited workers, people would be fighting each other to sign up, but any organisation that uses stand over tactics or threats to get people to join or stay in UNIONS is to be avoided.  Not to mention the high levels of corruption attributed to the majority of UNIONS.

you always go on and on about others demanding things, now you support people who can choose not to pay union dues and received union benefits, it's freeloading at it's finest.

Many of them DON'T WANT union benefits. They want no association with the unions, whatsoever.

And the benefits they get from work are from THE EMPLOYER, not the union.

So where is all this footage of Crowder, shoving the guy who hit him in the mouth?

And, I'm sure Crowder made up the guy, who yanked his hood while his back was turned.
