letter to the editor:

Why do people hate union workers?

Why do your workers hate unions? Two years in a row, I have been insulted by casino workers because I am a member of the United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America.

The buildings you work in were built by union workers. The staff on the airplane I flew on, the police and firefighters, and the workers in some casinos are all union employees.

If I didn’t have a good job with good pay, I simply would not be able to afford a vacation in your city. You have no problem with kids who trash your hotels and treat your workers poorly but you disparage me when I say please and thank you to the hard-working people who take care of me when I am away from home.

What is wrong with some of you who hate me because I have a decent job?
