The unions have become a corporation. The very type of corporation that many here despise.
I agree they had their place back in the days of child labor and such.
But today? The unions are as much of a multi-million dollar business as the corporations are. Plain and simple.

I think everyone on the planet should take a look at Earth from space and take note of what they do not see. What they will not see are borders. Borders create nationalities. Nationalities create differences. Differences create division.
We may all be different in our own personal, unique ways, but what we share with everyone around us regardless of nationality is the desire to live, love, and laugh in freedom and prosperity.
Borders are imaginary. The differences they create should be imaginary as well. I hope one day for a global awakening where we see that and stop fighting one another and start fighting those who wish to deprive us of our desire to live, love, and laugh in freedom and prosperity.
Stories like these are just one small step towards achieving that. I believe we are heading in the right direction and people are beginning to realize that there are powerful, evil people trying to control the lives of billions and that we all need to stand together as one to combat it. But there is still more work that can be done.
I have been saying it for a few weeks now since these protests in the Middle East and Africa began - if nothing else, at least show your moral support to the causes of the people who are taking to the streets in protest of the oppression they face on a daily basis. We all face the same problems. We all need to speak the same voice.
It may be a cliché phrase, but it still rings true: United we stand. Divided we fall.
