Police arrested the president, former president, and treasurer of Local 348 United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) based in New York, on Thursday. They are pictured in this post. All three are family members and were charged with racketeering and witness tampering. They are accused of extorting 2.4 million dollars from the poor smucks who are unionized under their leadership. Turns out their 150,000 dollar annual salaries (plus benefits) wasn’t enough. Of course, the union was a big time contributor to Democrat causes.
Understand this: there is nothing wrong with unions as long as salaries are based upon individual performance, dues are not used against union members' wishes, and their retirement/benefit funds are sustainable and debt free at any given time.
