Teamsters Target 15,000 UPS Freight Workers with "Card Check" 

A top ranking Teamsters official boasts today about a recently ratified contract with UPS that:

“Once the national UPS and the local UPS Freight agreements are both ratified by our members, we will have a ‘card check/neutrality agreement’ with UPS Freight."

Let's hope no dissenting workers targeted with "card check" suffer the same fate as Rod Carter, a former UPS driver who Right to Work attorneys helped file suit after Teamsters operatives viciously attacked him for refusing to walk off the job.

Every week, it seems that union officials target more workers with coercive "card check" organizing.

Look at what
has happened over the years in Michigan. This should be a "Right to
Work" country if anything. Unions served a purpose 4 decades ago but
in todays marketplace unions are killing corporate profits.
Uneducated people are always bitching about the products that come
from China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, etc., saying
that nothing comes from this country anymore. If your the CEO of a
large American corporation and your job is to make the company and its
shareholders a profit then most likely you are going to have your
product built in a place that allows you to make that profit. With
unions you are setting yourself up for disaster. In my opinion,
unions are the death of the American manufacturing industry. These
are mostly people who did not graduate from high school or dropped out
from college. They look to the "Union" to give them a better life
because they did not have the forethought to go out a grab an
education. These people are all "Followers". Corporations need
"Leaders" to be competitive and successful in todays marketplace. We
are no longer competiting against other American corporations. We are
competiting against the global market and not just ourselves. This
was not the case when unions were formed decades ago. Unions are very
bad for growth. I would like to strangle these people. Education is
the key to success, not unions.
