Hoping For Unions

Rarely do I agree with everything in a given post but with this one, I do.

Simply Left BehindThe Non-Rapturist's Guide To The Galaxy: In Union, There Is Strength:

"...But today, this week, this month, this year, we're starting to see the backlash of unions and union-minded people. The budget cuts that municipalities and states have been placing in effect has caused workers to shout 'Basta!' and take to the streets. In Wisconsin, even the unions exempt from Governor Walker's edicts have stood shoulder to shoulder with their union peers.

In union comes strength. The firefighters remember the words of Pastor Reinhold Niebur: 'Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore we are saved by love.'

Or to put it more prosaic terms, if they can screw with you, they can screw with me, so I stand with you now. "
