    What’s fucked up is that I bet you there’s a bunch of Trump supporters in the labor unions. I’m part of a union and too many of my brothers and sisters are conservative voters, despite conservatives being openly hostile towards unions.

      Par for the course. Take all you can take and give nothing in return is their motto

        I’ve seen this too, the ones who bitch the most will trash the union and the company, but seldom if ever actually show up at union meetings. It’s inherited from a culture of apathy, and this “give nothing in return” is a big issue.

        Usually the democrats at least show up to the meetings, conservatives bitch and do nothing.
