That would run counter to democratic rule. It would be no different in substance than saying we will not pay taxes next year because we do not agree with the person that was chosen by the majority to be President of this nation. Or we will not pay 10cents more in state taxes for gasoline because we do not agree with the Governor. Or we will not pay property taxes for school bond because we disagreed with how the majority voted. It is wrong to argue that the democratic process stops with city councils at the local level and cannot be practiced at any lower level in our society.
Local unions are , in reality, the most democratic institutions in our representative democracy.
They have a higher percentage of participation in their electoral process than even the Presidential election. They adhere to the principles of the Constitution and the ideal of representative democracy. On the other hand, the business community is the most undemocratic and autocratic institution in our nation. Our guaranteed rights and freedoms are surrendered at the corporation gate. For the privilege of contributing his labor to the corporation, the worker may be asked to take a lie detector test or to urinate in a cup to proof he is worthy to enter the gate.
