That's always been my contention, unions were needed back then, and
they worked . unfortunately they've gone too far in a lot of cases.
Why are you up at 0400?

Donal,
No wonder my Irish ancestors left you behind.
When they arrived in America, America took a big **** on them. They
worked
the coal mines for less than their daily bread. When they'd had
enough,
they stood up for themselves, fought for fair wages, and made such a
stink
that even the president of the US took note and began to make
changes in the
law to protect the working man. A lot of blood got spilled but they
figured
if they were gonna die, it would be at the end of a gun and not by
starvation.
Now you and others here are trying to say that people are all nicey
nice,
and the laws wouldn't allow that to happen today. RIGHT! That's why
business
is moving over seas, so they can treat those people like ****, the
way big
business treated Americans 100 years ago, and less. This mentality
of screw
the little guy will bite them in the ass when the little guys get
together
and start cutting frigging heads off.
And by the way, the mentality of "the worker gets **** while the
sales-businessman gets all the profit" is what got the Jews hated in
Germany. I have a copy of an 1895 encyclopedia I'd love to share
with you in
which it discusses the "growing" problem between German craftsman
and Jewish
business owners. It's really quite interesting, considering when it
was
written.

Compare the Canadian marajuana violence with the actions of labor
unions
in
the United States. Using the same logic, labor unions should be
outlawed.
Most labour unions seem to think that people should get paid even
if they
don't produce anything. If labour unions had their way, then the
American
Dream would collapse in no time at all.
Labour Unions and Prosperity are mutually exclusive.
Are you some sort of communist, Bob?
Regards
Donal
