    ...and yet Democraps want to limit, restrict or eliminate any corporate political donations, while demanding unfettered, unlimited "campaign financing" from any Union...as long as it's to a Democrat.

  • well.... most people think of them as two different things...

    but you could technically make an argument that a union could fall under some vague aspect of the definition of corporation, if you wanted to twist it...

    but you would really just confuse more people than help with that kind of wording...

    "Liberals do not recognize the fact" because your premise makes no sense.

    Unions are not business, created on the model of making a profit.

    Unions often or typically are incorporated. Any operation can incorporate. That is just a legal formality that has been erroneously stereotyped as a business for profit.

    Although most corporations probably are formed to make profit for owners (anyone who wants to be an owner in "public" corporations with stock shares traded openly) many are non-profit including incorporated unions.

    Source(s): For decades I studied philosophies, cultures, and social institutions. I began that because of confusion resulting from my military experience under the shadow of neo-Marxist anti-military and anti-capitalism indoctrination in the universities. I continue a forty year quest looking for some truth in the pile of stinking crap a wide variety of bigots made by blaming people or practices they don't like while excusing people or practices they do like regardless of where the fault really lies.

    No but some big corporations unite (union) with other similar corporations and combine to prevent smaller companies to get a foot in the door...Like in the phone business for example.

    Yes, but unions are evil because they give normal people power & corporations are good because they give rich people power.

    A labor union is not a business, is tax exempt and files no articles of incorporation with the state or federal government. This is an organization created and operated by employees who have the power to decertify the union with majority vote at will. A labor union has the right to collect dues for each member to pay for operational costs, but this collection does not constitute revenue for business purposes. According to the NLRB's website at publication, 20 states have passed laws allowing new employees to decide whether join a labor union when accepting a job where a labor union exists.

    a union does not produce anything of value, that's why liberals love them.
