This site and others have challenged that assertion time and time again. Unions don&#8217;t give a fig about &#8220;working people&#8221; or their wages. The goal of big labor is to get as many dues paying members on the rolls as humanley possible. The more money they can take from workers the more left wing politicians they can buy off. Big Labor poured more money into Barack Obama&#8217;s campaign coffers than any other constituency on the planet. They want extremely radical left wing policies enacted. We&#8217;re talking hardcore Marxism, Communism, and Socialism.</p><p>AFL-CIO leader Richard &#8220;Dick&#8221; Trumka has finally <a href="http://www.breitbart.tv/union-boss-trumka-admits-unions-are-about-massive-social-change-making-progressive-america-not-wages-for-workers/" target="_blank">admitted</a> what the real goal of unions are &#8212; &#8220;massive social change.&#8221;</p><p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="360" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://blip.tv/play/hJNRgpWCfwI%2Em4v" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="360" src="http://blip.tv/play/hJNRgpWCfwI%2Em4v" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2011/01/05/video-richard-trumka-admits-massive-social-change-real-purpose-of-unions/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>AFL-CIO Leader Accepts Communist Party USA Award</title><link>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/12/09/afl-cio-leader-accepts-communist-party-usa-award/</link> <comments>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/12/09/afl-cio-leader-accepts-communist-party-usa-award/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 09 Dec 2010 16:42:09 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Chris Jones</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Liberals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[U.S. News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[afl-cio]]></category> <category><![CDATA[big labor]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Communism]]></category> <category><![CDATA[communist labor unions]]></category> <category><![CDATA[communist party usa]]></category> <category><![CDATA[john olsen]]></category> <category><![CDATA[radical leftists]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/12/09/afl-cio-leader-accepts-communist-party-usa-award/</guid> <description><![CDATA[From The Blaze: Those who doubt the connection between the communist party and the unions need only to read accounts of a recent awards ceremony to see how both groups view each other.

Whenever you bring up Communism here in America people role their eyes like it’s no big deal or you’re just imagining things. Nope, Communism is alive and well in America. Labor unions have become the vehicle of choice for pushing Communism and Socialism in America. The majority of everyday working union members, many of whom were forced to join, have no idea how radical and anti-American labor unions have become.</p><p>Here’s another little gem from <a href="http://www.peoplesworld.org/leaders-map-jobs-fight-at-amistad-awards-event/" target="_blank">the event</a>:</p><blockquote><p>The program opened with a welcome from student members of the Young Communist League who explained that they became involved because they want to make the world more fair and equal.</p></blockquote><p>How’s that for good parenting? Better yet, why not send children to Cuba as foreign exchange students. Let them experience <em>real </em>Communism.&#160;</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/12/09/afl-cio-leader-accepts-communist-party-usa-award/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>4</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Video: Union Thug Dick Trumka Declares War On Intolerance</title><link>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/10/25/video-union-thug-dick-trumka-declares-war-on-intolerance/</link> <comments>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/10/25/video-union-thug-dick-trumka-declares-war-on-intolerance/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 25 Oct 2010 20:56:32 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Chris Jones</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Liberals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Video]]></category> <category><![CDATA[afl-cio]]></category> <category><![CDATA[anti gay bullying]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dick trumka]]></category> <category><![CDATA[it gets better]]></category> <category><![CDATA[richard trumka]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.thehotjoints.com/2010/10/25/video-union-thug-dick-trumka-declares-war-on-intolerance/</guid> <description><![CDATA[This is rich.
