Hi, this is conservative candor and I'm Dr. Carl Mumpower...

There was a time when unions served a purpose beyond their own self-service. The early movement centered on worker safety - their hard work and the evolution of labor laws, technology, and the culture at large secured success. The new union mission soon became securing as many golden eggs as possible from a fat goose. NPR offers an example in noting that in 2005, UAW workers in Detroit were making an average of $73 dollars an hour in salary and benefits.

Slapstick comedy, head banger music, and juvenile presentations distract from and damage the essence of the discussion. Leave the polls, slapstick, and hysterics to the guys who are best at it - the leftheaded talking heads.
