Social Security Works @socialsecurityworks.org

Life is better in a union. Unions helped build our Social Security system. Strong unions make a strong Social Security system.

I was in a union and I’ll agree that they helped us with our contracts with the company !!! But they are also run like a corporation themselves !!! With yearly parties in Las Vegas on our dime !! I knew of two of our reps bragged about being so drunk they fell out of the bus they were on !! Sooooooo

Not our experience at all, as much as the partying on the union dime goes. If it's like a corporation, then it's a potentially corrupt one. It happens

I thought that first statement was a reference to the entire country. It's true in both cases.

Here's what I always said to the right wing nut jobs I worked with who didn't support unions: Every executive in this and every company has an employment contract. Why not you? Why not us?

Unions built the middle class in 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. Since then, the Republicans mission has been to shrink the middle class; now being accelerated under Trump and his strategists, the Heritage Foundation.
