"collective bargaining, contract administration, etc. These are known as chargeable costs. Other things, such as political activity, are non chargeable costs. They are known by these indicators, because some folks don't want to be a part of the union, and/or don't support the political aims. This legislation was passed by the right wingers and the National Right To Work Committee, to damage unions. Unions can only charge folks that elect non-member status the amount equal to the chargeable costs. Guess what they found out? The Unions range between about 88% and 98% of their money being spent directly on administering the contract and serving their members"

Yes. All of that is overhead the the workers must pay. Blood money that feeds the union bullies. And union GOONS do come around on construction jobs and but things up if it is not strictly union.

Where did Jimmy Hoffa go?

October 3: Last night at Philadelphia City Hall, union thugs ruthlessly and violently attacked critics of President Bill Clinton gathered to protest at a fundrasing event he was attending.

In the midst of a heated debate between a legion of 300-pound Teamsters bribed to come out in support of the President and impeachment supporters, the union goons started throwing punches at the protesters. In one instance, a Teamster mercilessly threw an impeachment supporter to the ground and started kicking him -- without provocation.

Even the Clinton-loving Philadelphia Daily News confirms this account: "[T]he friction between pro-Clinton Teamsters Union members and anti-Clinton protesters erupted into not one, but two separate brawls in which beefy Teamsters kicked and punched some anti-Clinton protesters. Blood was trickling down the face of one man and other protesters' signs were torn."
