I am a union carpenter.
Say unions leave then the next day your employer cuts your salary in half, and no insurance.

What would you do?

Let me tell you a little joke.

One kid says to another. My dad is so fast he can shoot a deer with his bow. Run and catch it before it hits the ground dead.
The other kids says, "that ain't ****". My dad works for the Union. He gets off at 5 PM, but is home by 1 PM.




In the trades - any union trade you work your a$$ off, and if you dont your gone.

Another Democrate that dont know ****.

Here's my argument: I'm a BETTER carpenter than you. I know more, work harder, and do better work. If I'm in a union, our employer CAN'T pay me more than you.

Sorry, that's not for me...

I really doubt that the shield was made in the harley factory. I believe National Cycle makes the shields for harley.
