WHO IS NEXT????

FRANKSMITHSAYSNB EDITORIAL:

So far our socialist style dictator is getting away with simply ordering thousands of people to join unions against their will simply because he is ordering them to--whether they want to or not.

To date he is getting away with outrageous orders affecting 2 groups of people who are both made up mostly of self employed people working out of their homes by forcing unions into their homes--again simply because he ordered these people to belong. Stories of union thugs visiting these people in their homes and making all kinds of threats to coerce them to join the union are becoming commonplace and so are stories that they are telling people they are acting on the order of one man, the same "SOCIALIST" style dictator that ordered all of this in the first place.

If it were not happening right here in Connecticut, you would say that nothing so outrageous could ever happen in America.

The rest of the public doesn't seem to care because they are not employed in one of these areas, so the attitude is simply one of not caring because "it doesn't matter to me." If you listened to Governor Rowland's radio show yesterday, you heard that there is some talk about plans to force every person who is self employed mowing lawns, landscaping or plowing snow to join a union whether or not he wants to and again simply because our communist-like dictator orders him or her to. At the rate that this dictator is going, it appears that it won't be long before every single person in this state is forced to belong to a union all because one dictator says they must. For those who don't seem to care simply because they have yet to fall victim to this gulag style oppression, I would like to leave you with a famous quote from a victim of similar type oppression:

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out - because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the communists
and I did not speak out - because I was not a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for me -
and by then there was no one left to speak out for me. (The German anti-Nazi activist, Pastor Martin Niemöller)

And here is the current version:

First they came for the home health care workers, and I didn't speak up for I am not a health care worker.

Then they came for the owners of day care centers, and I remained silent because I am not a day care worker.

Next they came for the Polish shop keepers and still I remained silent for I am not Polish nor do I own a business.

Next they came for.....
