So what exactly does Dan Clore do for a living anyway?

There are, however, union shops which is quite different. It is not often that unions stray too far with union dues in the political arena because of the controversy possible. By far most of the political money is from voluntary contributions separate from dues. If, however, a union member wishes to relinquish union membership he/she can do so and not pay any dues toward political ends. I think this is foolish myself, when unions are more worker friendly than other organizations and provide more return for the dollar. Insulting Dan was a natural response to his insults. It doesn't really further the argument, but it ****es Dan off and that's OK too. Dan has shown great disrespect to most of us by assuming he is the only person here who "works" for living and has any grasp on "the real world" where he assumes he lives. Read through a few of his inane blatherings and you will see why he invites the same invective in return. You on the other hand seem to have a civil disposition. Thank you. |
