In a different post, about the presidents the other day, I stated Lobbyists shouldn't be banned. However, the difference is the corporation doesn't force its views on the employees, for sure not taking the employees money and donating it how they see fit.

The big corporation don't force employees to have the same views. Normally you will see the office go one way and the upper level go another, how it should be.

Problem is, if you don't join a union, you get hassled, pressure, no help, excluded from company events, and the list goes on. Some companies don't have the services, at the company level, to help the employee, since the union controls it all. Being so, the non-member does not get processed or any help at all.

I have been in two unions and my father in-law was the president of one. I'm not sure what a union doing it's job for me, has to do with this. When a company, that isn't full of greed and total crap does the same thing, without the dues or pressure.
