		<description><![CDATA[Compare to Toyota... when things get tough, the President of Toyota Japan takes a pay cut from $1.3 million to $890,000 and the pres of Toyota USA gets cut from $1.5 million to $890,000.  At Ford (CEO makes $68 million) and GM (Ceo makes $22 million - because Obama capped GM execs after the first 27% raise tried to sneak through), just as soon as the ink dried on the union contracts taking huge cuts to the benefits with a 4 year wage freeze, they gave themselves along with managers of other divisions a 27% raise!  At Toyota, it feels much more like a team effort, you feel like you can trust your boss to do the right thing. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That is absolutely RIDICULOUS that it takes 9 ppl to total $2 million in wages.  If those Union VPs had any initiative, they would be making $2.25 millian EACH just like the Hostess exec&#039;s, or better yet... $29 million with another $59 million in bonuses like the Ford exec&#039;s.  Yet another case of a lazy union worker who has no work ethic at all.  This should finally show people what dinosaurs unions have become.  C&#039;MON PEOPLE/UNION WORKERS!!!  GET WITH THE TIMES!!!  Give your buddies a raise, max out the credit line buying yourself a couple of cars and a yacht, then file chapter 11 so the court has to raid the employee pension fund to pay your bills (because that&#039;s the only money left - you DID make sure to spend all the other money, right?).  I mean why not, you sure as hell don&#039;t have YOUR money in that account!  Its just BUSINESS! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Obviously you know less about business entities. And second, it&#039;s impossible to prove a &quot;close-minded&quot; person wrong. So I have no intention to. (An assumption on my part about you being closed-minded, but I give myself great odds at being correct on my assumption, though.) 
 
But just for Ha-Ha&#039;s - 
 
The author is factually correct. Those 100,000 members collect their paychecks from either their employers, their State, or no check at all, but definitely not from the union. So, therefore, you can not double dip the numbers on their employment status. They don&#039;t get counted under the Union because they are members/clients, not employees. Employees don&#039;t pay for a service, members do with their dues, and that service is representation. Their number definitely does not count in your argument because they either work for someone else or they are unemployed, but they don&#039;t work for the Union. The members are clients or a customer to the Union. 
 
And just so I am clear, because your Ford example made no sense. If you receive a &quot;PAYROLL&quot; check from a company you are their employee. I.e. a check that has FICA deductions on it, social security, state taxes if applicable. If you get that type of a check, then you are an &quot;employee.&quot; Otherwise you are an independent contractor. 
 
The locals are separate local business entities that affiliate with other locals and national, to give the:  &quot;power in numbers&quot; purpose. (Except in the Hostess Brands case). If you look up each local in their respective state, they operate as a separate business entity that works in and with an agreement with national. The locals have their own expenses and overhead, so again, this number doesn&#039;t count in your argument. 
 
Based on the relationship perspective, It&#039;s a pyramid scheme really. :) 
 
So looking at the Union itself, nationally (the argument presented by the author), there are only 58 employees, 8 of whom are VPs, that make a really good salary (and good for them) off their membership, the people they represent. These national people are agents representing their clientele, the members. They are providing a SERVICE to their clients, the members NOT employees. And these agents would make more money if they were better at their job negotiating, too bad they suck at it.  
 
So, yes, the author is factually correct and you are utterly WRONG!

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ll respond for him. Ford can afford to pay that 1.5 million because the company shareholders select the board members to elected him with the accompanying salary, paid by the fruits of their labor. The company is free to choose how much their own people are paid if the money comes from their own sources. 
 
Meanwhile, union groups gouge money from union workers (essentially the company), and in return, pose a hindrance to operations. Yes, unions are needed to fight for employee rights, but there must be some level balance between what employees deserve, and trying to squeeze everything they can out of the system. Not to mention, the union system creates no incentive for employees to work hard. 
 
Therefore, unions create what economists like to call, &quot;dead weight loss&quot;, which in this case, exceeds the social benefit created from their presence. 
 
Moreover, the presence of unions creates a mentality of &quot;us vs. them&quot; when corporations look at their employees. If you tell me my employee is part of a group trying to squeeze every cent they can get out of me, then of course my reaction is to naturally defend myself. Meanwhile, you consider many tech companies with no need of unions. Do you see google employees complaining about their benefits?  Thats because they have a sense of unity, where executives and employees understand they are in a mutual relationship. Unions create a divide, preventing any possible form of this &#039;unity&#039; mentality. ]]></description>

Same old B.S. 
 
Why don&#039;t you address the fact that your article was extremely inaccurate. 
 
Why don&#039;t you prove me wrong? 
 
I&#039;ll answer that for you.

		<description><![CDATA[Another point: union employees often work very rarely.  That&#039;s a fun sentence but an ugly reality. 
 
I&#039;ve never met more lazy people.  They show up twice a year, if that, to &quot;negotiate,&quot; throwing their weight around and dining with the bosses.  Then they do nothing, unless they&#039;re busy stealing the treasury -- often to stick up their noses, if my experience of the building and convention industries are any measure. 
 
Which they are. 
 
I was once offered a bribe in exchange for not filing charges against the International Leather Goods, Plastics, and Novelties Workers Union (ILGPNWU).  They were operating as a for-hire fake shop in southern states.  You know, since demands for buggy-whips had gone down the pike.   
 
They wrote me a check made to look like a paycheck, with witholding, etc. and told me that I was now an employee of the union.  I was briefly terrified, since I hadn&#039;t told anyone I was going to the union office after being summoned there.  I watched over my shoulder as I walked to my car. 
 
Then I lost my job.   
 
Unions are the Mafia.  If any of the simpering critics here wish to challenge this, I imagine it will be a short and highly imaginative conversation.

		<description><![CDATA[How was the 6 &quot;union bosses&quot; wages paid exactly? 
 
A: By taking money from (this will be a new word for you) &quot;working&quot; peoples hard earned money. 
 
Yea, yea, yea, on your other point which you didn&#039;t mention but here is the reply anyway: 
Some people decided to be workers. 
Another person decided to get a education and run things. 
---Lefties always complain about that--- ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I guess you could say that,  
like the heads of corporations create value for their shareholders,  
the VP&#039;s etc of the union create some sort of value for their &#039;stakeholders&#039; (the union members),  
in the form of increased wages and benefits, 
and thereby earn their hefty packages.  
 
But, who catches sh!t when the companies that actually employ the workers become unsustainable? 
The union bosses, who led and counseled their members into becoming unaffordable? 
Ha.  No, it&#039;s always the Big Bad Businessman.  
 
If union members saw themselves as like shareholders, 
and their bosses as responsible for guiding them toward sustainable returns, 
they should be much more enraged at the union bosses, 
who sit pretty regardless of what happens to the workers. ]]></description>
