Description[?]:
| -The time to end the malignant and corrupt influence of the Unions is now. Nearly 30 years of work has been done to finally reach this moment. Corrupt union bosses who maintain a vice grip over businesses and the leftist politicians whose policies would destroy the economy and moral character of the nation can be stopped. Unions should be allowed but these policies that force eventual membership in a union and give the unions power to tighten their vice grip even on the government must be stopped President Hiram Blythe |
