Carl Higbie spoke hard truths about unions on Tuesday that every American worker needs to hear. These once-helpful groups have turned into greedy monsters that care more about power than protecting workers. Unions today are nothing like the honest organizations that helped build America decades ago.
Modern unions have become giant power hungry blobs that drain money from hardworking families. They force workers to pay dues while union bosses get rich and live like kings. Meanwhile, regular Americans struggle to pay their bills and feed their families.
Look at what unions do when they don’t get their way. They shut down entire industries and hold our economy hostage like common criminals. Port workers, auto workers, and others use these tactics to hurt innocent Americans who just want to buy groceries and gas.
Union leaders care more about politics than protecting workers. They spend millions of worker dollars supporting far-left politicians who hate American values. These same politicians want to destroy our economy with green energy nonsense and open borders.
The biggest problem is how unions block good workers from getting ahead. They protect lazy employees who don’t do their jobs while punishing hard workers who want to excel. This backwards system hurts everyone and makes American companies weaker against foreign competition.
Unions also drive up costs for everything we buy. When they demand outrageous pay raises and benefits, companies have to charge more for their products. This means families pay higher prices at the store while union bosses count their money.
Smart workers are waking up and leaving these corrupt organizations. They realize unions take their money but don’t deliver real results. Right-to-work states are growing because people want freedom to choose their own path.
America needs to get back to rewarding merit and hard work instead of union politics. Workers deserve the right to negotiate for themselves without paying tribute to these bloated organizations. It’s time to put hardworking Americans first and union bosses last.
