Thread: The KOCH BROTHERS!! Arrrrggggghhhhh!!!

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/h...151032009.html

A Wall Street Journal analysis of political spending unveiled Tuesday found that organized labor groups dropped a combined $4.4 billion on political activities between 2006 and 2011, about three times more than previously estimated.

How many people does "organized labor" represent in this context?

What is the conservative counter to unions who can confiscate money from people legally to advance the progressive agenda wether or not the union employee agrees?

What is the conservative counter to the government itself that can confiscate money from citizens in order to build an entitelment culture and buy votes?

Can't answer the question can you guys? Sheesh, just say so; but it's really pretty easy.
It's about 17.7 million people.

There is no conservative counter; it goes against their principles, right?

So, if you do some more simple math, how what is the $/person spent by the unions versus the Koch brothers?
Is that an important figure or not?

Say only 4 million or so represented by the Unions agree with their political agenda. Then what's the $/person?

You are sure correct that Unions political spending does not represent the entire membership of the union. For example, Scott Walker got 35% of the UNION household vote in the Wisconsin recall.

But to answer your question, The Koch Brothers represent all but 21% of the population.

No, the Koch brothers represent only the Koch brothers and nobody else.

So he lost the unionvote. No surprise

First, I didn't ask that question.
Second, the Koch brothers represent themselves and no one else.
The link represents something eliiptically tangential and patently incorrectly summarized:

Then the head of SEIU represents the head of SEIU and no one else.

35% of union members in Wisconsin had their wages confiscated and used AGAINST them.

The head of the SEIU is elected by the union members...like any other union...so he's representative of the majority of folks in the union. The Koch brothers represent themselves, ONLY.

Well DUH. They VOTED against themselves. By their choice.
The DBTs are attempting yet another multiply helical misrepresentation.

DbT <3's teh Koch.

You pro-union guys are so cute. It's not the early 1900's anymore dipshits. Paid enforcers aren't firing wildly into crowds. Nobody's hanging wobblies from bridges. Unions are just another version of Big Business - self-serving parasites that suck the blood out of regular jackoffs like you and me.

They voted against liberalism. The union used their own money against their best interests. They did not vote against themselves. Phewww. You dumb.

They libeled against vetos. The onion mused their own orny. But if they didn't veto their libels then why did they onion?
