[QUOTE="loudshirt, post: 1991507, member: 10585"] You should not need a quote to know that national union leaders are making way more than the average person they represent. As I stated in an earlier post I really do think that at a local level unions are looking out for their employees. At a national level most of the big unions could care less about a couple hundred employees in Oklahoma. This was proven by the fact that the union would rather let all its employees be unemployed rather than take less money. Did the national union leader lose his job? Or is he still employed making way more than you or I? Is the national union leader taking a pay cut since he contributed to people losing their jobs and benefits? At one time unions were a great thing. The now have run their course. If unions were to organize at say a state level they might do some good but large national unions The first couple of links from Google after searching union leader salaries: [url]http://washingtonexaminer.com/not-exactly-the-99-top-union-leaders-salaries/article/2505719#.UKelJoY2I3g[/url] [url]http://www.unionfacts.com/employees/AFL-CIO[/url] [url]http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/07/14/teacher-union-bigs-rake-in-dough-despite-budget-cuts-across-education-sector/[/url] and here is one from a pro union website that shows they make a pretty good chunk of change: [url]http://www.americanrightsatwork.org/the-anti-union-network/center-for-union-facts/page_2.html[/url] I will say after looking at the stories they do make a bit less than I thought, however they make way more than the average employee they represent.
