unions require participation by the workers, that is what makes them a union.

these days the union leaders are mad with power because the workers are generally, not involved at all.

the elections are much like the ones in our political systems - rigged isn't the correct term but people are presented with limited choices and their decisions dependent upon skewed perspectives.

what a sick joke.
