Trade unions the country’s greatest enemy

Worldwide, trade unions are on the decline, writes Derek Kirsch of Linden.

With our country’s unemployment rate at 27.9%, it has become ever more vital that we stimulate investment and grow the economy and grow jobs.

It is also abundantly clear that the greatest enemy to increased investment are the trade unions.

Worldwide, trade unions are on the decline due to their constant short-sighted demands for above-inflation increases which inhibits investment and growth, and their blinkered support of those with jobs.

This automatically makes them the enemy of the unemployed.

Unless our government does something very quickly to change their current strategy and curb the unpatriotic and grasping power of the trade unions, we can say goodbye to any thoughts of economic growth .

Without this mindset change, we run the risk of massive social unrest and the trade unions must share much of the blame for a looming tragedy.
