Unionism Is Bad

No doubt, when unions were first started, they were meant for good, but like many other things, many of the leaders became power hungry, and it has at this point become a detriment to many.

I understand that in many cases, belonging to a union ensures one of health care or some other necessity the employee is in need of. In so doing, they are gaining control in the workplace that gives them power over decisions that should not be theirs, making it detrimental to society as a whole.

It is my understanding that in some cases, you either belong to the union and vote as you're told or lose your employment. It is easy to see how they are getting control of our government. They acquire much money through these dues and use it to elect candidates that are opposed to the very things that the employee holds dear. This is not what our system should be endorsing. God tells us in his Holy Word that, "The love of money is the root of all evil." Money is buying power, and power used the wrong way can bring destruction. Let us pray for God's intervention. We have people in our government whose lifestyle is neither healthy or in keeping with God's will.

Two people of the same gender calling themselves married and being allowed to adopt children is, I'm sure, abominable to our heavenly Father and the poor children don't have a chance to grow up to be normal adults without the guidance of godly parents. That is very sad.

It should be absolutely illegal to use union fees to elect political candidates. If this continues, the union will be in complete control of who is elected, and in so doing, in control of most everything else. The NEA is a big hindrance to education reform.

It's not more money that's needed; it is the freedom to get back to basics, teach our true history and uphold the teachings so valuable to character and integrity, recognizing God as the supreme being, teaching the importance of obeying his Holy Word through the example of our teachers.

This would eliminate many problems our schools have today. Thank God for organizations like the National Right to work Legal Defense Foundation that is working to correct some of these maladies. may each of us sincerely pray that God will be merciful to us and show us what we need to do to correct some of these problems.
