Dear Group,
There was a time, many years ago, when unions had a purpose,
As the years rolled by, labor unions deviated from their goal
This is true, but look who caused it.
Most companies are run by professional mismanagers - bean counters with
MBAs. I doubt if it is universal but most MBAs I have known opted for
business degrees after flunking out of other more difficult disciplines such
as sports announcing. Unions were a reaction to their bad management. After
much turmoul, unions became an accepted and beneficial part of America. And
then what did they do? Why hire the same incompetents mismanage
themselves!! These trusted mismanagers either made "sweetheart" deals with
company mismanagers that made both rich at the expense of stockholders and
employees or, if the ompany managers didn't play, they duped the rank and
file into unrealistic demands that drove the employers overseas or into
bankruptcy. Twarn't the stockholders (owners) or the workers, it was the
professional mismanagers on both sides of the bargaining tables.
