The "okay-to-leech" laws

9. Collective bargaining is an essential human right...

based on the right of association and freedom of assembly, Constitutional rights in the US. This 'anti-labor' movement by right wing corporatist forces is another attack on democratic principles and values.

If we hold to democratic values, then we also hold to majority rule. This is fundamental in a democracy. When a group of workers make a collective vote for union representation, and we have determined 50% plus 1 as the deciding factor, then we are acting in the essence of BIG D Democracy.

It is a collective. It includes everyone. It is mystifying why anyone would want to 'opt out.'

Of course, Republicanism is mystifying! So, I am sure there are some number of workers who are ignorant, who don't understand the power of the collective. Who buy the right wing selfishness and personal greed.

The Republican war on America and democracy rolls on!
