In a post this afternoon on Political Affairs [Marxist Thought Online], the far-left wing writers are clamoring for EFCA by claiming that “unions are good for workers.”
Per the usual left-wing modus operandi, the Marxists cite the (faulty) BLS data typically used by unions and their pushers, as well as the de-bunked union studies so often cited by EFCA pushers and their political puppets in efforts to foist the no-vote unionization law (aka the Employee Free Forced Choice Act).
What makes their posts merit a Union Bullsh*t Watch post is one of the most ludicrous comparisons we have seen in a very long time, in which the Marxists state:
Moving cargo on the Oakland waterfront pays three times what stocking shelves does at WalMart, because longshore workers have had a union contract since 1934.
One would hope that moving cargo pays three times what stocking shelves at Wal-Mart does since the work is entirely different, as anyone who has ever been to a port can attest to.
The post goes on to pump out the same deceptive B.S. that all the left-wing nutjobs are blathering on about these days as to why they want the hallucinogenically-named Employee Free Choice Act signed into law.
Wouldn’t it be much simpler if they just came out with their true intentions and stated something like this:
“We are Marxists. We know our arguments are bullsh*t but we like unions and we don’t think people should have a choice to join our unions. Furthermore, we don’t like company bosses and we want to see them go out of business so we can nationalize their property and have one big happy, socialist system…”
