  The Electric Commentary: Union Roundup
Unions get there power from the fact that if you don't treat them as the government directs, the government will take away a bunch of your stuff through force.
Secret ballots should ensure that workers who vote for a union measure that is defeated suffer no consequences AND that workers who vote against a union that is eventually certified suffer no consequences.
All youse who are afraid of imaginary union goons (like the scary 300 pound men of Paul Noonan's fevered imagination) are apparently unfamiliar with the facts.

  Imaginary country - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 FrontPage magazine.com :: How Socialist Unions Rule the Democratic Party by Lowell Ponte
Nearly 40 percent of union workers today are registered Republicans, but a sizeable chunk of their wages is taken and used to elect Democrats.
Union Summer is run by the son of Democratic Congressman Sandy Levin, nephew of Democratic Senator Carl Levin, so incestuous is the Union-Democratic nexus.
The IWW refused to forgo strikes during World War I, opposed the war, came to be widely perceived as unpatriotic and anti-American, and this led to the extinction of this early dinosaur version of the labor movement.

 Union of Imaginative Associations
The challenge to comprehension is discussed elsewhere (Dynamic Reframing of "Union": implications for the coherence of knowledge, social organization and personal identity).
The nature of any union of significance is therefore not predefined by any form of understanding but is progressively and continually to be (re)discovered in time.
Indeed, since "yoga" signifies "union" (in Sanskrit), the corollary may be that the challenge of any "union" of significance implies some form of "yoga".

 The Imaginary Abe
Oddly enough, the states of 1776 thought they were states, plural, not provinces of a sovereign "Union." N.B.: They did not declare themselves a single "free and independent state," which is what Lincoln (followed by Jaffa, of course) in essence said they were.
The states were not formed by counties delegating powers to them; the counties had no sovereignty, but were mere subdivisions of the states.
In his 1862 state of the Union message he even proposed a constitutional amendment to promote colonization of "free colored persons" outside the United States.

 MySpace.com - IMAGINARY JOHNNY - BROOKLYN, NEW YORK - Indie / Rock / Electronica - www.myspace.com/imaginaryjohnny
Imaginary Johnny's debut full-length takes the highly-acclaimed sound of his 2003 EP, The Upside of the Downside, to new heights.
It wouldn't be a stretch to say that Imaginary Johnny's first-person storytelling is a play-fort built amid a thicket of sampled beats.
Imaginary Johnny is either arriving at a new place or painting a picture of where he's been, sometimes fitful and other times content.

 Mott's Blog: THE IMAGINARY PLANS FOR A NORTH AMERICAN UNION:
What is clearly not understood or deliberately obfuscated by the “North American Union” conspiracy theorists is the difference between sovereign countries meeting and trying to reach consensus on matters of mutual interest as opposed to surrender the right to make these decisions to a supranational authority.
The principal report on North American relations by the CFR that is referred to be the conspiracy theorists is “Building a North American Community: Report of the Independent Task Force on the Future of North America” (2005).
A North American Union, in this respect, is not only probable but desirable, if not massively craved for, by financial and political opportunists who have no interests in protecting the orginal character and sovereignty of a great country.

An imaginary country or fantasy country is often important in mail art, as it issues its own artistamps.
It can sometimes be difficult to distinguish between an imaginary country, which does not even attempt to make any colourable claim to sovereignty, and a micronation, which does.
In mail art the union has turned into a real thing with their own site and their own discussion group.

 The imaginary 'axis of evil'
US President George W Bush's "axis of evil" speech makes one wonder whether this is an exercise in idle, but catchy, phrase-making or, worse yet, whether the United States is in the process of establishing a framework for conducting its global "war on terrorism" for the rest of this decade.
Kennan's argument was known for its articulation and for the fact that it was based on the then-prevailing reality - the Soviet Union was bent upon becoming a global exponent of communism, and that its implosion was largely brought about because of the inherent fallacy of communism as an ideology.
The fact of the matter is the "axis of evil" is purely imaginary and has no basis in reality.

 Sobran's --- The Imaginary Abe
In order to get around these inconvenient facts, Lincoln said falsely that the Union was older than the Constitution, older even than the states.
Oddly enough, the states of 1776 thought they were states, plural, not provinces of a sovereign “Union.” N.B.: They did not declare themselves a single “free and independent state,” which is what Lincoln (followed by Jaffa, of course) in essence said they were.
As their name implies, they defined the Union as a confederation of the states, not as a sovereign power over the member states.

 The Union at WBAI
At that meeting it was decided to investigate the possibility of switching Unions to the American Federation of Television & Radio Artists (AFTRA).
The Union began as an idea at WBAI in 1986, when there was considerable uproar over the problems caused by a new Program Director who had no understanding of WBAI, exhibited bad manners, cultivated an inability to deal honestly with people and who didn't know what he was doing in the first place.
The Union busting attempt began in earnest in the Spring of 1996, when Union and Management finally sat down to negotiate a new Contract, after Management had delayed the process.

 Adventures in Philosophy: Classical Essay
Let your soul be united to your body as closely as you please, let there come about a union between it and all the bodies of your environment.
All creatures are united to God alone in an immediate union.
Do not say any more that your soul is united to your body more intimately than to anything else; since its immediate union is with God alone, since the divine decrees are the indissoluble bonds of union between the various parts of the universe and of the marvelous network of all the subordinate causes.

 AlterNet: Border Jumping to Mexico: A Journey Across Imaginary Lines
So at collective bargaining tables around the country, including Boston, union negotiators are calling for the creation of committees composed of hotel workers, community leaders, and hotel managers to determine the extent of the problem and craft solutions.
But first, the hotels need to share their data with the unions, to get a common understanding on the depth of the problem.
She may not know it, but the author is a fellow traveler with those on Capitol Hill who work to betray this country into the North American Union which will lead to further treason by selling US out to the New World Order.

 New Europeans use imaginary cattle to milk EU subsidies - Times Online
In Greece, farmers’ unions input agricultural data into insecure computer systems that can be modified externally at any time.
After investigating how the €105 billion EU budget was spent last year across a range of policy areas, the auditors identified “a material level of error in underlying transactions and weak internal control systems”.
The auditors also concluded that administrative expenditure on EU staff and premises and aid to new member states before they joined the union was “legal and regular”.

Yurchak provides a subtle alternative to traditions of debate in Sovietology that counterposed an analysis of totalitarian accounts of Soviet power to the 'revisionists' of the 1970s who saw a much more dynamic space of social maneuverings.
Indeed, he makes the important point that many Russians actually have memories of being much more critical of the Soviet Union than they actually were when it existed.
This is a very good ethnographic account of some important aspects of everyday life in the later years of Soviet Union.
