The Anti-Union Network

Submitted by intexile on Fre, 09/15/2006 - 4:35pm.
It's time the truth got out.  Anti-union organizations and for-profit 'unionbusting' consultants have greatly contributed to workers experiencing enormous obstacles when trying to form unions.  The rise of these groups over the last few decades, their multi-million dollar budgets, and their escalating attacks are no coincidence:  it's the result of a decades-long plan from right-wing ideologues bent on dismantling labor organizations responsible for advancing the social and economic interests of America's workers.
