Vermont Firefighter Punches Back!
An official with the National Right-To-Work Foundation (based in Virginia) polluted some Vermont online and newspaper commentary pages this past weekend with a column demonizing unions and parroting corporate America’s anti-union talking points. In response, Vermont firefighter Christopher Maloney punched back in the following commentary that published this morning in the Times Argus:
The Perspective piece Mark Mix of the National Right To Work Committee in the weekend edition of the Argus pretty much served to confirm what I’ve known all along, that they are owned, bag and baggage, by conservative interests bent on making sure U.S. labor is paid cheaply and used thoroughly.
The scree Mix continues to mouth about how union labor is out to bankrupt the American worker by making nonunion workers pay union dues, is ridiculous and easy to disprove, should anyone pick up a calculator.
