Message | What a mistake. Unions make our Commonwealth strong. Never forget that. |

Message | There is no harm in this - we allow those who cannot be fussed with Unions to take a back seat, and those who wish to join one still can. It also ensures that the Unions cannot hold the country to ransom, while maintaining an acceptable level of power for them. |

Message | Why should someone be forced into a union in with they dont agree with. The union cannot speek for them. Yes unions are good but you all seen what the unions did to the auto companies in the U.S., becuase they had so much power. Lets not let that happen to our great nation. |
