Comments on: Unions Decide THEY Should Say Who Gets Taxed http://www.redstate.com/warner_todd_huston/2009/01/14/unions-decide-they-should-say-who-gets-taxed/ Fri, 01 Oct 2010 19:55:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Mike Gray http://www.redstate.com/warner_todd_huston/2009/01/14/unions-decide-they-should-say-who-gets-taxed/#comment-1603 Mike Gray Wed, 14 Jan 2009 17:55:51 +0000 http://www.redstate.com/warner_todd_huston/?p=505#comment-1603 As much disdain as I have for labor unions, I'm not sure why they should be any different than any other special interest that represents some group of people. Many of us are represented by organizations who lobby for us on various issues. Why do they not have the right to suggest policy to their elected representatives? I would think it's up to the membership of the union to tell their officials that this sort of thing is outside their charter. Unless, of course, they're OK with it, in which case we're back to the original question.
