It's not politically incorrect to say you're Republican or conservative.
It's an American worker's right to unionize for sure, but that being said, don't expect me not to point out when or if union leadership takes advantage of union members.
I've always found a way to make my way, and now I've had the fortune of being hired by a great company - Chrysler Corporation - one of the original Big Three.
The media's worried about whether I've paid my taxes; they're worried about any number of silly things that have nothing to do with America.
Private unions, such as the UAW, is a choice between employees and employers. If that is what they want, then who am I to say you can't have it?

As far as the Republican Party? I felt connected to it because individual freedom should not be legislated by the federal government.
If a kid is being bullied at school, my advice to them is to punch the bully in the face. The government can create as many boards, commissions, and informational sessions on sensitivity that it wants. The fact is, we still have bullies, and we still have victims who are trained not to stand up for themselves.
The politicians in Washington are spending trillions of dollars of our money. When are Americans going to stand up and say enough is enough?
