  • This entertaining scene from the 1986 movie, “Armed And Dangerous” demonstrates the mob mentality of unions in the United States. Frank Dooley (played by John Candy) watches in delight as Norman Kane (played by Eugene Levy) asks logical questions of the “International Alliance of Special Police & Guards” union representatives (Mr. Klepper and Mr. Lazarus).
    Watch the movie on Amazon Prime: www.amazon.com...
    Enjoy, I thought it was funny.

    Eugene Levy is now 75 years old. Glad to know he’s been able to collect those benefits for 10 years now.

      I think this is the only movie Eugene Levy actually technically starred in. But John Candy's fame was blowing up at the time, so he was on the posters and VHS covers.

      That was funny lol. Just hope that $15 per week minus the union's "cut" translated into a sustainable benefit lol. After the unions rob their members funds often there isn't much left lol. Hopefully that and social security he can live modestly.

    With everything that deducting from your first paycheck you will not be getting nothing on your first paycheck imagine working back in 1985-1986 as a security guard making under $5 Dollars an hour charging you for your uniform charging you from the Union then charging you for the guard class and for the guard card permits you be lucky if you have $35 left on your paycheck

      $15 a week in the mid-80s would have been excessive. A security guard back then would have been paying more like $15 a month in union dues, not a week.
