Message | I don't see why we need the law tell a club how to run itself. The members should decide how they want their union to work. |

Message | We don't agree of course. A possible dictatorship within an union is no good. Specially when it could have a devastating impact on our economy. |

Message | How can you have a dictatorship within a union? If you don't like the club terms, join a different club. If there isn't another one you like, start one. |

Message | We support this sensible proposal |

Message | LP: Trade Unions are usually compulsory membership, at least here in the states. It's not simply a matter of 'make your own' when it comes to needing and keeping a job. It is true, there are a few states (Oklahoma I think is one) that is right-to-work (Read: optional membership to unions), but that required legislative action (like this) to make it happen. |

Message | "Trade Unions are usually compulsory membership, at least here in the states" Yes, but here in Trigunia, they are voluntary. |
Date | 21:32:43, October 12, 2005 CET | From | People's Equality Party Of Trigunia | To | Debating the Trade Union Bill |
Message | The Trade Unions must govern themselves, not the Government. If workers want a democratic Union, then the workers themselves must ensure that it remains democratic. |
