Card check? No idea what you're talking about. You claimed net neutrality was a censorship doctrine. It isn't. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card_check Hmm... well, I don't know enough about the issue to comment. If management is doing a good job, seems to me you don't need a union. That was why they formed.

puleeeeaaseeee. He was and is a joke... Kinda' like calling the pending censorship doctrine, the fairness doctrine... Fairness Doctrine or net neutrality? The Fairness Doctrine has been dead for quite a while. However, the FCC is now considering rules to insure net neutrality. What is net neutrality? Did you forget that you entered into a contract with your ISP? If you don't like what one offers you can excercise your right to choose a different ISP. Or, you can negotiate with your ISP to provide you with better quality service. The ISP really isn't the issue. They're a dime a dozen. The issue is the broadband providers. There are just a few of those. They're mostly backbones, such as MCI, Spring, UUNET... MCI no longer exists, see Verizon. Sprin(g)t no longer exists, see AT&T. UUNET no longer exists, see Verizon. Besides UUNet never owned the long lines, the had modems at the POPs. The misnomer of public and private traffic on the Internet blurs the fact that it was all privately owned. Try again. Whatever... it's still the broadband providers not the ISP. Net neutrality is about not censoring content. So, what point are you trying to make? The previous poster seemed to think NN was a bad thing.

You entered into a private contract, at least in the US for now. If you don't like the terms and conditions then don't pay for the service. Access to the Internet is not a right. Buy a newspaper or a magazine.

That was why they formed. The union doesn't care if management is good or bad, the union is looking for more members paying dues. With union membership dwindling they are looking for more income and more muscle with which to lobby Congress. If workers feel like they're being treated fairly, there's no need for a union to protect workers. Doesn't this match well with you free market lovers?

Well, now two dems are trying to make it so Fed employees (such as themselves) don't have to pay tax on the so called Cadillac policies along with the Union members.. Seems it's just a way to pay off the folks who voted for Obama and further punish anyone who didn't... These guys are unbelievable. Time to bring back the gallows for treason.
