Right to Work Would be Last Nail in Coffin for Indiana Workers

Don’t look now but those Ebenezer Scrooge Republicrats are at it again.
It’s a little hard to take when you see people getting spit in the face and being told it’s the dew. I was in on the ground floor of the so-called right to work organization in the early ‘60s. But I soon discovered their concern about the worker was similar to Dorothy’s experience with the “Wizard of Oz.”
I was employed for five years at Douglas Aircraft. The workers were represented by the International Association of Machinists labor union. I knew people who worked for Hughes aircraft bragged about receiving equal or more salary being nonunion. But what they didn’t understand was that it was the threat of unionization that caused Hughes aircraft to pay good salaries. As in the movie “Fist”, it was said, “You have to have push.”
Republicrats of today for the most part are not pushing free enterprise but they love capitalism. For those that don’t think there’s a difference you’d best study little closer. The top 3 percent or 4 percent in this country are trying to take you back to the capitalism of the 19th century before Guilds and unions that used labor uprisings to force the capitalists of the industrial revolution to give the working class a break. Not out of the goodness of their hearts either.
Make no mistake the process is in place to take the workers of North America back to those 19th century conditions. If you don’t believe so study what this pure form of corporate capitalism is doing in the Third World.
I read that a Republican representative in Indianapolis was all bent out of shape because a union member happened to make a alleged derogatory remark about the lady’s husband who, according to the article, is a banker. In my estimation the only thing lower than the banking industry is possibly used car salesman and politicians.
If you let these conspirators foist a right to work law on you it will be one of the last nails in the coffin for the working class here in Indiana. If you don’t believe me study the history of labor in the right to work states, or better yet ask people who worked in right to work states. Many times in a ferocious forest fire the only effective means of combating it is a backfire. Unions are not free of corruption but they stand between you and those that would make you a third world slave. The fat cats love the right to work cheap laws.
