Union Hypocrites
The Services Employee International Union (SEIU) has the following on their website:
SEIU is the fastest-growing union in North America. Focused on uniting workers in three sectors to improve their lives and the services they provide, SEIU is:
- The largest health care union, with more than 1.1 million members in the field, including nurses, LPNs, doctors, lab technicians, nursing home workers, and home care workers
- The largest property services union, with 225,000 members in the building cleaning and security industries, including janitors, security officers, superintendents, maintenance workers, window cleaners, and doormen and women
- The second largest public services union, with more than 1 million local and state government workers, public school employees, bus drivers, and child care providers
The amusement comes from the fact that the SEIU is a major democrat supporter and they gave over $85 Million to Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. Their website goes into their constitution and bylaws and makes reference to helping and supporting working families – making lives better and more affordable. That’s the hypocrisy – the SEIU can no longer afford to pay for some of its employees and has therefore chosen to lay off and fire some of them.
Below is a video of a protest against the SEIU from some of these targeted employees
SEIU Mission Statement:
We are the Service Employees International Union, an organization of more than 2 million members united by the belief in the dignity and worth of workers and the services they provide and dedicated to improving the lives of workers and their families and creating a more just and humane society.
Unions just take dues from members and payoff their democratic cronies to get “goodies” and “kick-backs,” meanwhile the real workers will not see a dime – just an increase in their dues the next go-round. Unions are special interest groups (lots of “change” by Obama) – they could very well be considered lobbyists to some extent as well – and where there is money and power, so too exists corruption and fraud.
Here is a great comment from Michelle Malkin’s website:
Look at the good Unions have brought to America:
* The Steel Industry
* The Auto Industry
* Manufacturing like CAT
* State & Municipal Employees
* Railroads or what is left of them***All broken or on Bailout now.
Things that built America but have raised up the Entitlement Generation in blue collar America. They see it all washed out from under their feet because the Unions killed Industry and they see Business walking away from un-profitable enterprises and their Union dues got Socialists elected to Congress and the Presidency.
Retirement Funds and 401k accounts, health care benefits are tanking big time. Banks failing and the greatest budget deficits in the history of humanity.
Misplaced trust. Hope & Change my As*!
Look for $10.00 loaves of bread and $10.00 gallons of milk soon. Un-Employment at 25% before 2010.
Gasoline at 8 to 10 bucks a gallon.
Social Security is Broke.Predicted here now.
Unions elected those that are Elite, the ones that are raping, plundering and pillaging the Treasury now.
Yeah, Unions. Thanks!
