Reply #19: when they have tried, everyone gets fired - illegally [View All]

[WhoCountsTheVotes]

but the corporatiosn are never punished for it - Clinton didn't punish any corporation ever for illegally firing organizers as far as I remember..

"And in the political arena, it seems strange that Labor is spending so much time complaining about NAFTA and other free-trade legislation that will is really inevitable, and not nearly so much time opposing right-to-work laws, or supporting the repeal of Taft-Hartley, etc."

False on a number of accounts. First of all, FTAs are NOT "really inevitable" they are a product of human action, not some mysterious spectral force. Second, of course the unions have spent a lot of time and money opposing "right to work" laws, and as for repealing Taft Hartley - the Democratic party would stop that proposal before it ever got to the Republicans.
