Billions and millions of tax
dollars are given away
Extorted from taxpayers who
don’t have a say
Is this a country in the
hands of a political fool?
Does nonsense and hypocrisy
from his lips drool?
Billions are sent to
countries overseas
To pay for their abortions:
if you please!
What an obscene use of money
to kill the pre-born
Is this, disgusting, sick, and
definitely, a terrible wrong?
Millions of dollars are being
handed to the unionized media
And corporate chieftains
also, will get some of this tax monies utopia
The propaganda pushers will
now have the peoples’ tax dollars to fund their “news”
And the “journalists” unions can
spend more money, from forced union dues
Mandatory union dues, support
and finance many non work issues
Now “$600 million” of
taxpayers’ dollars could be also misused
Should there be a public inquiry
into the dispersal of union dues?
This is the memberships
monies and can be subjected to abuse
Millions of membership
dollars have been given away over the years
To numerous organizations,
and various parties; from union overseers
All this money given away
comes from members compulsory union dues
Is this really “democratic”
and do the union members get to freely choose?
Or are they just like all other
taxpayers, prisoners of a system
Where money is forcibly taken
from them: Is this freedom?
Has “democracy” been hijacked,
when people have no say?
As a leader of a country
gives billions and millions of taxpayers’ dollars away?

“Unifor: Canada’s new political party — er,
union”
Canadians should be concerned and Parliament needs to
pass Bill C-377, which would establish standardized financial transparency
requirements for unions under the Income Tax Act
...
“Taxpayers deserve to
know how unions are spending their money
In doing so, it is
important to remember that unions rely on the forced contributions of member
and non-member workers in unionized workplaces for their revenue, and that they
enjoy generous tax breaks. Therefore, engaging in politics, community activism,
or other activities not linked to collective bargaining requires unions to
operate in a transparent manner. Canadians and potential union members have a
right to know how much money and time is spent on political activities or
social causes versus collective bargaining....
“Bill C-377 would
establish new reporting requirements for unions, including the amount of time
spent on political activities and financial support for social causes. It will
be back before Parliament in October. As the rhetoric coming from Unifor makes
clear, this bill needs to be passed without amendment. Otherwise, a huge union
larger than most political parties and with hundreds of millions of dollars at
its disposal will be exerting undue influence over our economy, political
system and society without any transparency or accountability....”
Terrance Oakey is president of Merit Canada, which
represents open shop construction associations.
