Each labor leader earned well over six figures, salaries paid for by the dues of their hardworking members.

Why, they're nearly as poor as the Clintons when they left the White House!
They want more for themselves but don't want to say where it will come from, except more taxes.
It came from the workers from state agencies like that of Maryland where O'Malley made them paid a percentage of their paychecks for the union to back them. All state employees had to pay these fees whether they wanted to or not.Can you imagine all the money being brought in???
