    It’s funny how quickly opinions have (seemingly) changed regarding unions. For decades, both parties were pretty hostile to labor unions. Now, everyone wants to show how pro union they are. It’s been quite the dramatic 180°.

      I feel like at least one party gave lip service to unions at every major election for as long as I can remember?

        Republicans always claim to work for the common man while also championing policies that hurt them.

          Both sides do, but yes, the GoP does so with such frequency that it truly does require either true wealth or an undereducated mindset to vote for them. And its often as simple as convincing someone they are/almost are/ or can be, apart of the former. The amount of cash flow alone required for the GoP policies to benefit someone and justify their vote, long term, is obscene.
