    Coalition of the Corrupt Blows Up Bogus Labour Movement - By Wanda Marie Pasz, http://www.ufcw.net
    Stern and Hansen don't get it. With union membership at 8% and dropping, their movement now looks suspiciously like a fringe group. The fruits of the failure of their brand of fascistic unionism stare millions of workers in the face each working day. Their chest-beating and empty rhetoric impresses no one except their well paid and self-interested staffers. The new generation of workers that they seek to organize has no connection to the bogus labour movement that they helped create. A bunch of guys who look - and sound - like sales managers aren't going to inspire activism. Their disregard for democracy, in an era when many are concerned about the erosion of democracy and democratic institutions in our society, will sink them.
