Barnes, or any other Fox News commentator, has any clue how hard it is to join a union in this country, even if every single person in a workplace votes yes. The current so-called "secret ballot election" system is a complete sham and so far removed from an actual free election that it is an insult to the word election to even call it that. No other network or Democratic strategist spoke a peep about the Employee Free Choice Act last night.
Fox and it's corporate backers can't accept the fact that the overwhelming majority of Americans want to change the balance of power in our society and are tired of getting kicked around and left behind. Let workers decide for themselves if a union is going to help them make their life better. We've got to stand up to this b.s. socialist name-calling by the right and say enough is enough. You had your day and you destroyed our country. Let's get to work to fix it for everyone.
I'm a union member and proud of it.
