[lbo-talk] Boycotting the unorganized?

[B.]

I'm with Lacny on this one, despite the unneccesarily
surly tone he adopts. Chuck0 has stated many times
that he feels unions are "the left wing of capital,"
so it's no surprise he feels no special need to show
solidarity with them. [And yeah, many business union
leaders do sell out their members, but come on,
crossing picket lines is still odious.] Also, calling
the strike organizer that Lacny mentions "a fucking
idiot" is pretty lame.

John Lacny wrote:

"Last year my partner argued against a strike by her
union, saying it was ill-advised. When the strike vote
came and people approved the strike, she worked harder
than anybody else in the union to actually organizing
the strike." 

Chuck) replied:

"What a fucking idiot."
