Good morning

Hey, Ronnie, you old union pusher! Tell us something. If unions are
perfect why did the employees at Microdyne vote them out, just a couple
years after voting them in?

Hello to you Mike:

I have no idea why Microdyne voted them out but the employees had the
opportunity to vote. That is what's important. The right to vote and
the right to vote with out fear of threats. We should all be allowed
to vote. It is not union verse non-union. It is about the right to
chose.

79% of workers agreed that workers are "very" or "somewhat" likely to
be fired for trying to organize a union.

78%of workers during union organizing drives are forced to attend
closed-door or isolated meetings with supervisors.
