Former President Trump’s embrace of private sector unions is all about the Rust Belt and the workers on the factory floor. In other words, Main Street. The problem with unions isn’t the workers, it is leadership gone bad.
Because it is leadership that charges exorbitant membership fees that hardly trickle down to private sector workers.
The same is true for the public sector where, when employees are given the right to work, a real choice to join the union or not, the clear decision is not to join. This isn’t because they don’t want better treatment, it’s because leadership of the public sector unions work hand in hand with the politicians. Together they pilfer taxpayer dollars to keep their own juicy positions. Underfunded pensions are evidence of such irresponsible behavior.
Action Line: Trump/Vance recognize it is not the fault of the men and women working on Main Street. It’s a leadership problem. Click here to subscribe to my free monthly Survive & Thrive letter, and put your family first.
