Something that I may be starting to understand about union leaders


When you are a union leader, you earn a good salary, which means that you make money. When you make money, “common sense” tells you that you must invest it. Defending labor rights is your job and your duty and no one goes to work just for fun.

On the other hand, investing and making your investment fruitful, that is making profits, become your hobby, something that you do for fun. Therefore, your investment may end up being considered by yourself as your treasure, something that you cherish because it involves no commitment towards anyone else but you.


 What are the odds that you will be enjoying less cherishing your hobby than your duty? Is it why union leaders are so compliant with bosses and governments and so sloppy when it is time to struggle for a more equal society? How do they avoid upper class interests becoming theirs?
