For some reason, I don’t like this so called movement…….something fishy about it. Not all the “people” are union members, correct? So why the special rates?
Grovel and beg. Why not 1/32nd they would have thought that is a larger number?
this offer by clarien to union members is an insult to all people that have accounts at clarien and are receiving minimal interest. I am sure the unions will not welcome what seems so clearly to be patronizing.
I am sure the Peoples Campaign is not working only on behalf of union members, but more for the whole populace.
The special rates apply to union members so they wouldn’t take their money and invest with the Union! So transparent!
You would invest in an organization that where like ten years behind on their financials?
LOL wow just wow
