....all those worker dues going to political contributions...

I remember a report posted here on DU showing the combined total of union donations to DEM political campaigns being in the 300million (or so) dollar area in the last Presidential election cycle, representing a 20million+ member coalition of unions, or about $15+ a worker. Not sure how that is relevant to what the billionaire boys club members are donating.
