Unions vs Associations & the U.S. Supreme Court

One of the great things about our judicial system is that if you are right or wrong anyone with enough money can get heard at the final stop in the court system. The U.S. Supreme Court and, this is good except when our unbiased Supreme Court is not unbiased, such as it is now. For now the injustices that are being imposed upon our citizens, women’s rights and union workers do not dare go to court for fear their case may end up in the Supreme Court with a final decision that is ruled against women’s and union rights.

We must get the Supreme Court back to an unbiased court. How do we do this? Keep a friendly president in office with a congress and senate that backs the president. In the meantime we will not have the legal process to help us so we will just have to work on winning the public’s opinion with the truth and the consequences of the GOP against the middle class and retired people.

Remember the Supreme Court giveth and Supreme Court taketh away.

And then consider ...

Why are unions getting a bad rap? Most all professions have association to protect themselves. What’s the difference between a union and an association? They both pay dues. Businesses have the chamber of commerce, doctors have medical associations (unions), lawyers have bar associations (unions) and manufacturers have the manufacturing association (unions). Football is a totally social program. The players have a union and the owners split the money earned among the owners. Both unions and associations have political action committees.

So the only thing I can think of to explain the bad press unions are receiving is a class issue (class warfare) on the working middle class families.

We used to be proud to wear our union hats, putting union bumpers stickers on our bumpers, but the GOP antiunion have spun the talk until a lot of uninformed people now think unions are to blame for all the money problems, and not paying attention we have let the antiunion people (GOP) take our name (union), and vilify it. The antiunion organizations still have their unions with different names for the same thing.

So to change this we have to understand how and why this happened. The how is just like the school yard give someone a bad name spin it until it takes hold. Then they or it will have the brand. So we must start branding the GOP’s anti-workers message with what they are doing with us, and they, the GOP, are now going after the older population’s Medicare and Social Security. We have to call the GOP out on these social issues for what they are, Class Warfare.

So what does this all mean? The Supreme Court and all the associations listed above are working against the working class and labor unions.

Have the MAGA/FBI infiltrated Labor Unions?

Have FBI agitators infiltrated our labor unions like the FBI did during black rights movement, feminist movement, and anti-Vietnam protests to sow the seeds of division between the factions and Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammed—to control and disrupt our labor movements from the inside? We don’t know at this time, and is anyone in the media or government looking into this? The war on labor and the effort to drag us back to serf wages is coming from within the White House with some labor union and MAGA members. Corporations are padding their accounts and of one greedy man instead of its workers. The war on labor is and will be fought between corporation titans and labor, and at this time the corporations will use the White House, courts and the FBI and even those at Homeland Security and I.C.E. against us. Labor must educate our members on how counter and what tactics are being used by the corporations and government against labor and the average person in general. How many people have lost...

What Do You Deserve?

The survival of American democracy requires the existence of a flourishing union work force. In a survey, 68 percent of Americans approve of labor unions. So, as an old sheet metal organizer, I say we need to go all out in organizing while the soldering iron is hot, to use a sheet metal workers tool. We should organize all workers no matter where or what kind of work they do. All workers have the right to belong to a union and all should support each other. If you, in your work place, do not know how to form a union, then do what Napoleon’s military adopted adage, ‘Jump into the battle and then figure it out.’ One of the best ways to organize is worker to worker and plan it out over a meal or coffee and talk to other union workers to see what would work best for you and also what unions are winning at this time. Just go for it. When things are in disarray, like the shit show in Washington, D.C., they might not even know what you are doing until it is too late for them to push back aga...

Unions Expand or Face Extinction

In 2026 unions worldwide must educate and expand their memberships or face certain death. We need to educate our workers to understand that the republican party does not care about, does not deserve their support or votes and only cares about the billionaires. The GOP is their enemy and not their friends. The GOP and billionaires are the workers’ enemy. They want the workers’ sweat and blood for as cheap as they can get it. These greedy people and their insatiable appetite for more leaving us with much less will not stop until we’re forced to work for scraps and fighting each other for the pittance. They will not invite you to golf with them or go hunting or to dinner with them. In fact, they are always in pursuit of ways to destroy our unions and the way of life we’ve obtain by being union. One way they are doing this is to use the court system, especially the lop-sided Supreme Court, to take away our union rights and to get more states to vote for The Right to Work, which leaves work...
