Patrick Cudahy Fire Update- Union Greed

Now that the Patrick Cudahy fire has been pretty much been put out, now the unions are asking for donations.
Now, I feel sorry for the workers who are out of work and will have to go on unemployment. They need support, but where is the union support to the workers?
From the UFCW web site: they are asking for donations- but what about the union donating money? Nothing mentioned.http://www.ufcw.org/ The SEIU, which is in the back pocket of the UFCW has nothing mentioned on their website. http://www.seiu.org/ AFC-CIO- nothing.http://www.aflcio.org/ Teamsters? Nothing http://www.teamster.org/
Typical of unions and for the the most part- liberals- ask other people to help out but not if it effects them. Unions are rolling in money from it's members, so why don't they use that money? Why don't union executives cut their salaries to help their union brethren? Because unions don't really care about their workers- all they are interested in is power and greed.
If and when unions pitch in and help their union brethren in Cudahy, then I will help. But if unions choose not to help out, then why should I?
