Union is from the Latin word "lech" or in English, leach.


Now why does that make Sense! Lol


Another poster just slightly to the right of Genghis Khan.

The irony, of course, is that the misguided OP clearly intended to equate unions with "leeches", not "leaches".

leach: verb
gerund or present participle: leaching

(with reference to a soluble chemical or mineral) drain away from soil, ash, or similar material by the action of percolating liquid, especially rainwater.
"the nutrient is quickly leached away"
synonyms: drain, filter, percolate, seep, filtrate, strain
"the chemicals leach into our drinking water"
subject (soil, ash, etc.) to a leaching process.

I'm sure the OP will still be able to find something nasty to say about unions that involves the word "leach".

I think you hit the nail on the Head......"the nutrient (union members wages) is quickly leached, drained, filtered, strained, seeped away directly into the unions bank Accounts! :stirpot:
