You think government health care will help? Look North, we have
government health care and people don't start real businesses here

union issues too.


Those darn union issues. Imagine the gall of workers wanting an agent to
represent them and negotiate for decent wages, hours, working conditions
and benefits. Everyone knows workers are there for the exploitation.

I per say have no problems with unions, but they should be as easy to get
rid of as to get. They are like a flu you can't get rid of. And when times
are good, they want the profits in wages, when times are bad the sharehodler
have to eat it. A little too one sided. Lockout rules on out of contract
unions should be liberalised.

The best environments are where the economy is doing real well and employers
are short of workers. That way abusive employers will not last long.
Trouble is with high taxation, high union tollerance, socialist mentality,
makes for a crappy career options when looking for a job.

And over time, while CAW/UAW enjoyed 30 years of excessive pay and benefits,
it ran down GM/Chrysler one little cut at a time. But I do think
management/board of GM/Chrysler were the real big causes as they are not
supposed to let this happen. Thus, management needs a massive firing,
starting at the top.
