UNION MEMBERSHIP DECLINING



Union membership has dropped to 11.3% of all American workers, the lowest since the 1930’s, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. 
 
COMMENTS:
The National Labor Relations Board should be representative of the labor force.  Accordingly, no more than 11.3% should be union affiliated.  But, the fact is that they are all affiliated in some way with unions.  How can there be a fair and neutral decision-making process?  It appears to me that more and more members of the labor force are just as unhappy with unions as the rest of us are. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Two days ago, there was another shooting, this time at a college in Houston.  You didn’t mention it in any of your blogs.  Why not?  (Hernando ~ Sacramento, CA)
A. Because it was a non-event.  At any other time in our history, particularly in a large city like Houston, that story would have been relegated to one of the inside pages of Section B or C of the newspaper.  It may or may have not made the evening newscast.  But, because of the current anti-gun climate, any such shooting gets blown entirely out of proportion, makes national headlines and gets the liberal-left anti-gun politicians wagging their collective tongues.  Do they ever show what happens in a legally-sanctioned gun tournament?  No.  Why not?  They have an agenda.  Case closed.

Q. Why haven’t you commented on Obama’s Inaugural Address?  (Teresa ~ Oroville, CA)
A. For one thing, I didn’t listen to it.  I learned a long time ago not to pay any attention to what he says, but to watch what he does.  He’s an accomplished, pathological liar and you cannot believe a single word that he says.  If you want to know what’s going on with Obama, watch what he does. 

Q. I hear the Republicans are asking for input on how to do a better job.  How can I participate?  (Loren ~ Chester, CA)
A. Go to: http://growthopp.gop.com/default.aspx  PLEASE! Give them an earful!
