"not incorrectly, as more interested in their narrow self-interest"

Jesus Christ, how many anti-union talking points can you repeat it in a 
week, Doug.

Who the hell do you think is spending multi-millions of dollars fighting to 
preserve Medicaid funding and other benefits for people who sure as hell 
aren't paying union dues?

This kind of "left wing" union bashing does make me ill after a while.
