I loathe to use the term, but somehow it is so very appropriate

WSJ article about union hiring protesters to walk their picket lines, etc.

"I told one guy today that I was fighting global poverty, and he looked me in the eye and said, 'I don't care,'" says Stephen Borlik, a new college graduate posted outside a D.C. subway stop recently as a $13-per-hour street fundraiser for CARE, the antipoverty nonprofit organization in Atlanta.

Mr. Borlik moved here in May after graduating from Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant. He is living with his brother while looking for a job. "It can be extremely frustrating sending out résumé after résumé and getting no response. It almost makes you not want to do anything."

To keep his job at CARE, Mr. Borlik says, he must hit a weekly quota of new donors giving a minimum of $20. A CARE spokeswoman says "team members" in the organization's "Face-to-Face" fund-raising program have a goal of two new donors per day.


Two donors per day so $40 per day. $13 per hour for an 8 hour day = $104. I can sit home and copy two names/addresses out of the phone book for $64 per day.

Yo dawg, I heard you like unions, so I put some non union people in your union so you can union while you union.

I might actually die of laughter if some group was to start "organizing" these people into a Union using the card check rules, then demanding health benefits from the employer (the other Union) to talk the line, citing the hazardous nature of the job, repetitive stress injuries, etc.

The paid picketers should unionize.
