Remember
all of the discontent surrounding the mean and brash attempts to take away workers’
rights by Ohio Governor Kasich,
Wisconsin Governor Walker and their Tea Partied Republican
legislators? Well, it’s happening again!
Michigan Governor Rick Snyder and his lame duck Tea Partied Republican legislators swiftly passed a fraudulent bill to “ban union workers in a
bargaining unit to pay for the cost of representation".
The truth of the matter is Michigan workers
are not forced to be members of or to pay anything to a union. If workers choose to be covered for collective
bargaining purposes, they pay for that representation. If workers do not choose to contribute to any other form
of union representation either political or by charitable contributions to
organizations such as the Michigan Mental Health Association, they get a refund based on an annual independent CPA firm audit.
The weirdest part about the whole situation is that every time Tea
Partied Republican governors and state legislators start attacking workers,
billionaire, oil speculating, Tea Party campaign donors Charles and David Koch backed by propaganda machines such as the
American Exchange Council and FOXifiers are, always, tugging the puppet strings behind the scenes.
The question is why?
The answer is to
suppress the right to vote!
Unions play a key role in registering and getting out the vote of the 47%. Koch and Company don’t like that. The
Koch and Company voter suppression
scheme began in 2009 when they manipulated the pimp and prostitute scam to pressure Tea Partied Congressional representatives to defund ACORN under the manufactured charge of voter fraud.
The real reason for Koch and
Company’s war against ACORN was that ACORN was a non-profit organization extremely effective in registering economically disadvantaged
citizens to vote! The collateral damage caused by Koch and Company’s pimp and
prostitute scam was ending ACORN’s financial contributions toward saving thousands
of homes for Katrina victims; saving thousands of Americans from home
foreclosures and predatory lenders, and coming to the rescue of thousands of
public schools.
Koch and Company,
also, used their campaign donor
powers to manipulate Tea Partied
Republican governors, state legislators, state election officials and state
attorney general’s to create and pass fraudulent
voter suppression photo ID laws; underwrite malicious and distorted 2012
campaign ads and robo calls, and to fund Tea Partied propaganda think tanks like the Heritage Foundation.
The bottom line is workers who choose to be represented by a union are a thorn in Koch and Company's Tea Partied voter suppression craw!
