What Do You Call People Who Take Over the Work of Another?
When a person or a group of people invest in and start a business that becomes successful, what do you call people that try to take over by fiat much of the control of that company?
When I think of all the money labor unions have spent getting people elected, I wonder why they didn't start any businesses in which their membership could own and operate? It seems that labor unions have focused on taking control of governments to enable them to take away the investments and efforts of others. Every time I read "The Law" by Frederic Bastiat, something new comes into view. When government decides winners and losers, the evolutionary process of winning by work loses to winning by dictation and their is a difference. When people are free to choose, things are good. When people are free only to choose from those that the government decides can provide options, the process is as flawed as are results. Once the government takes control of the decision making process, freedom has been curtailed and this is never good. So, under our present Potus, how long will it be fore the unions control that which they didn't create? I ponder. |

That's been the unions MO for the past 30 years. Strong arm public/private companies into hiring union members , going 100% union, etc, etc.. Just look at the recent situation with Gibson guitars. They balked the unions, kept their company private and non-union. Company is profitable, employees are happy, the town&state is happy yet the feds are targeting them and trying to force them out of business over minutia. Is the union issue behind this? Could be.

Unions used to want to run the place. Now they are just happy taking a portion of the workers money and funding large salaries for bosses who don't do anything useful. It's a lot easier to become a union official and draw a 6 figure salary than figure out how to do it by working.
