is CHOICE!
The Repugnants are adamantly stating the American people should have a CHOICE whether to join a union or not. They are so concerned about us losing our individual right of CHOICE.
Republicans are now pro-choice?
The Repugnants are now supporting the American woman's right to choose birth control or abortions options? Now they are ok with gay Americans choosing to wed?
I truly despise these scumbags who pose as human beings.

They know that, with so many in need, it is a win for them. People will sell themselves sort to get that glimmer of hope that a job gives. And they can pick people that are less likely to join a union. And many out their are scared to because they see the strikes and think they will not get paid, they don't understand how it works, they just know they need a paycheck.
It is a win for the corporations a a loss for John Q. Public.
