Where Are They?

The People's Democracy has been touted as a major, nationwide effort to bring together people from all walks of life and protest as one unified voice. In reality it has amounted to little more than occasional protests of a few hundred people. Other attempts such as the, "wear your red shirt to work day" have flopped as well. Certainly all of these people have a right for their voices to be heard. However, these are merely the orchestrated actions of a small group of union bosses and their most die-hard members. These union bosses should respect their members. These hard-working men and women should not be compelled to masquerade as a genuine protest. An honest and well-rounded debate does not involve these blanket attacks. The union's concerns should be brought before the government in a truly productive manner.
