Political Endorsements

The will of the people is being violated by many organizations, churches, unions,. Unions were organized to represent "we the people," but if you look how the wage scale has remained low for the last 50 years, and how many of our largest unions represent and promote foreign nationals, creating huge numbers of people for each and every job, forcing wage scales down.

The AF of C, Teamsters, United Auto Workers, United Aircraft Workers are just a few. Many of these unions have corporations sitting on both sides of the negotiating table on all contracts. This was made illegal many years ago, in the 75th Congress, where the Pinkerton Detective Agency had infiltrated the leadership of many unions for corporations, so as to control unions.

Most unions today are controlled by corporations "violating" the trust of the membership. They (all political parties) are still marching lockstep to their own political agenda's, and not to the will of the people. They try to make out that political endorsements are that of the membership, when in reality, it is only the endorsement of the heads of these organizations. The government needs to oversee union contracts to make sure this practice of corporations sitting on both sides of the negotiating tables on all contracts not be allowed to happen.
