Have to say, I was really sad by the news of Bob Crows death. Now whether or not you agreed with the fella, he was a guy who stood up for his union members & would fight for\u00a0 them, for their rights & a decent standard of living.<\/p>\n
Far too often it seems to me that far too many `Union Leaders’ in this day & age, are more interested in their own position, & power politics for their own advantage, than that of their Union members.<\/p>\n
I say this to those out there, who say & believe that Unions are not good for workers, or that strong Union leaders are Dinasaurs…As the Unions have declined, so have living standards & the\u00a0 lives workers & unemployed as a whole. Also,\u00a0 along with the decline of Unions, the lives & standards\u00a0 of the executives\u00a0 has skyrocket out of proportion.<\/p>\n
I would say that Society itself is diminished by weakening of Unions. The gap between the Rich & Poor in becoming wider, & in becoming collectively acceptable allows for the foundations of great societies to crumble. Thus, ensuring poverty, chaos, violence & prejudices to flourish.<\/p>\n
So as others would say, whist you may mourn the passing of a great Union man… Dont just mourn..get organised.<\/p>\n
RIP Bob Crow 52 years is too young.<\/p>\n
