Either you cannot comprehend or you are like the ostrich in the sand.

I am talking about Union leaders who like sharks prey on the workers and take advantage of them. And off course the capitalist pigs do the same. And the poor worker always suffers. I am not talking of the need for a powerful group that constantly need to protect the rights of the workers.

The solution to this fighting is for the Govt. to take over like Obama did and ensure that these groups are kicked out the door and the government, who are elected by the workers, make sure that the workers' interests are protected. And if the Govt also becomes one like those two factions of capitalists and union leaders, the workers kick the Govt. out during the elections though secret balloting.

That is why socialist India has come to where it is. They booted out those union leaders and took over the unions and turned it over to a socialist Govt. The Germans are doing the same followed closely by the British. And to those Americans (right wingers obviously) scoffing at "socialist" Europe today, they have a thing coming here in the US. Obama is getting this nation back to a capitalist/socio economic model with things like Obamacare, reviving the auto industry etc. And he will have to deal with the banks soon if they try to dodge the Dodd-Frank. (strange how both the names associated with the bill are Dems when traditionally it is one Dem and one Rep)

So unions as we know it today are soon becoming things of the past. It is now Govts and the democratic process where the Govts are required to protect the rights of the workers instead of those of the capitalists. So when the choice was between a pro worker Obama and a pro capitalist Romney, majority went for Obama irrespective of his race.
