-CB: I'm a little confused. Since the Reuther takeover of the UAW, the red
-purges of 55 years ago, the labor movement has _not_ been engaged in class
-struggle unionism. What's outdated , or at least proven an enormous
failure,
-is class collaboration unionism ( partnership with the employers). So, what
-is he talking about ? What is needed is to bring _back_ class struggle
-unionism.
So are you against card check agreements to bypass the NLRB system?
Any card check requires some degree of agreement with the employer - class
collaboration if you will - so are they forbidden for class struggle
unionists?
Or what kinds of "class collaboration" do you want to eliminate that you
think folks like Andy Stern are continuing to engage in?
