hypocritical hatred for unions by conservatives?

Who's singling out unions for critisism.???

Your thread is about Unions, not Big Bussiness.

My thread is about generalizing unions for the actions of afew while ignoring those same actions of businesses and organisations. You cannot make the argument tha unions are bad because of the actions of afew, and yet completely leave or ignore those actions of businesses and organisations.

The excuse from many people, conservatives, is that unions are bad because afew union workers made threats in the past, and yet when it comes to the actions of big business or political organisations, all of a sudden, its about the freedom and rights of them to exist. And yes, there are many people who continiously go on about labour unions while insisting that private businesses need less regulation and can do little harm.

The problem here in Australia is also,
Many work sites demand you join a union or you don't work.
You are FORCED to pay union fees..
Those same unions are affiliated with political parties..
Whether you vote for that party or not, a good portion of your fees are paid as donations to that party..

Is that unionism or politics???
