The Fiercest Union Video We've Seen All Month

[Playinghardball]

Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to mess with the steelworkers . . .

2. Beautiful, It choked me up.!

[Warpy]

3. Oh. My. Gawd. That's the best video I've seen in a long time

That's really what's at stake, folks.

[postulater]

4. The start of an international worker's movement?

That's what it will take to resist the multinational corporations.

Well done. I loved the clips from Wisconsin.

5. Damn right.

More of that!

7. that's pretty good. but what is it in aid of? where is this "movement"? i don't see it.

also, the quote they attribute to tommy douglas is douglas quoting tennyson:

Come, my friends,
'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.

10. go to a steelworkers union meeting and point out the error

let us konw how it works out for you. ;-)

[indurancevile]

11. irrelevant. where is the "movement" they mention? so far i see this ad.

[Enrique]

13. i've been seeing it

keep your eyes open. Keep watching Wisconsin of course, but next comes the FAA fight. Also, if you see a group of people picketing outside John Boehner's house, it's likely to be union workers.

8. Excellent, tells it like it is, "no one gave us a damn thing" "we make real things" why is it

that pushing paper (electronic or otherwise) back and forth somehow "creates money"? It doesn't, it steals money from the productive classes.
When will the con ever end?

12. Good stuff. USW is a proud affiliate of AFL-CIO.

And covers a lot more than steel. :thumbsup:
