Unions promote class warfare? How, where and when pray tell? Last time I checked, it was the top 10 % of the wealth distribution that was waging class war on everybody else. Or perhaps you think unions are at fault for actually fighting the war that the fatcats started instead of rolling over and playing dead like the so-called social democratic parties in parliament?

I never said unions are at fault, I don't think they should fight any way.

And then, I don't remmeber having ever even mentioned unions in the diary post above (which I recommend to you, in case you didn't read it yet).

Are you seriously saying that unions should refuse to defend themselves when subjected to a concerted attack by neoliberal fanatics? Are you seriously saying that unions should not oppose the dismantling of civilised society by people who want to throw us back to the 19th century?

Something tells me that you don't have such a lenient attitude towards fanatics who wish to impose Shari'a...
