SNL did a "Bailout" skit, which has created some rather awkward problems for NBC. They spiked the video and tried to shut it down on the Internet. But aha, there's still some sites that have it.

I live in Kansas, a right to work state. I also work in a heavily unionized industry.
Where I work there are 5 different Unions covering different employee groups. I'm glad that I work in a "right to work state" because even though I strongly believe in the base fundamentals behind organized labor, I no longer support my union due to some dirty dealings over something that happened two years ago.
Each time I'm approached by a union member trying to get me to sign back up I reply with
"Why should I join and pay to have the union lie to me when the company is willing to do it for free"
The issue concerned an upper level union rep lying to me and about 500 other people about how a situation was going to be handled. When the problem came to it's final conclusion and didn't turn out the way we were told. I went back an asked the union rep about it. He looked me straight in the eyes and lied through his teeth, saying he never said or implied what I though he said, I must have misunderstood him. Of course if I misunderstood him so did about 500 other people as they were just as pissed.
I would have accepted it if he would have told me he was wrong an apologized for misleading me, I wouldn't have like it but I would have accepted it.
Just my personal experience and take on things.
