Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

When you decide to join the real world like the rest of us, expect a response. Until then, phasers set on ignore.
hahahaha......as soon as get owned, you throw out a smart ass response with no content....way to go brum.

Once again, if the Union CHOOSES to represent employees, that's their call, but if an employee doesn't want to join, and the Union goes forward anyway, knowing that their efforts may also benefit those who didn't join, why is that the non-union guys fault? Why should he be forced to pay....nobody forced the Union to organize did they?

The body knows what fighters don't: how to protect itself. A neck can only twist so far. Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism.

I obviously think that forcing someone to join a union is wrong, regardless of it's affects, however based on this Mackinac Center for Public Policy report, the affects that the Union leaders were warning us about, simply aren't reality.

Here is what they found in comparing current right to work states vs non right to work states.

•Employment in right-to-work states increased 2.3 percent, compared to a 4.0 percent decline in non-right-to-work states.

•Personal income grew 57.5 percent in right-to-work states, compared to 40.5 percent in non-right-to-work states

•Occupational injuries were slightly higher in non-right-to-work states (3.9 per 100 employees vs. 3.5) while workplace fatalities were slightly lower (4.3 vs. 4.1 per 100,000 employees)

•Union membership declined by 9.5 percent in non-right-to-work-states and 9.2 percent in right-to-work-states
