UAW and Matty Moroun in bed together?




Just got back from vacation and I see headlines saying that the UAW’s Bob King and Matty Moroun, owner of the Ambassador Bridge have joined forces and are definitely in bed together…why?...and talk about strange bedfellows?

Moroun wants to nix the new bridge to Canada so he can continue his lucrative monopoly of having the only bridge to Canada in these parts; talk about special interests…one man?

The UAW wants to enshrine UNIONISM into our state constitution and making it a constitutional right that cannot be challenged by anyone.

I guess the deal is that the UAW will urge their members to vote for Proposal 6 allowing Moroun to continue his lucrative bridge monopoly and Moroun will give the UAW millions to help pass Proposal 2 giving unions constitutional powers over labor in Michigan.

What really pisses me off is the fact that both proposals (2&6) are very bad for Michigan and for Michiganians but their backers are playing ads over and over and over again that basically lie like shit about what the real intent of the proposals is.

A new bridge to Canada would be a boon to the state with thousands of new jobs created, an increased flow of goods between the two countries which is attractive to manufacturers who want to be close to their markets and funding provided by Canada…you cannot ask for a better deal…so what is going on?...basic tit for tat…you scratch my back and I will scratch yours and to hell with Michigan and its residents.

Finally some ads are appearing to challenge Proposal 2 or constitutional unionism power grab and pointing out that the proposal has nothing to do with collective bargaining but a very devious way of union power taking control of the state and ask yourself which manufacturer will want to move to Michigan with that kind of union dictatorship in place?…not good for Michigan or its residents.

I am really appalled that these special interests would stoop to this level to gain what they want only for themselves and hell with the rest of us!

The vote has never been clearer:

Vote YES on PROPOSAL 1 and NO on the rest!
