That was a company choice....and not a good one.
oh. i see how this works. you claim unions destroy business. proof of
that is
1. non unionized plants are closed
2. unionized plants are still in production but you think they
shouldn't be because that disproves your view
gee. an ironclad argument
and that, to you, proves non unionized plants protect jobs? if that's
the case, where are the jobs?
If you were half as familiar with IBM as you insinuate, you would know
what a loss that was.
and if you knew logic, you'd see how ridiculous your position is
Argue this:

Times Union: A sweet IBM dealhttp://cnse.albany.edu/News/index.cfm?step=show_detail&NewsID=1406

A sweet IBM deal that netted the company $1.6 billion of the taxpayer
dollars, and then:

BM layoffs reaching 3000, union group claimshttp://www.edn.com/article/CA6632229.html

And then there are many, many, many of these that you can argue:

Toyota to Close Union Plant in Californiahttp://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/28/business/28nummi.html

and yet you admit that all the silicon valley plants that closed were
non union

and that proves unions cause plants to close.

kind of like the guy who says whistling keeps polar bears away from
florida...when he's told that there are no polar bears in florida, he
says 'see how well it works!"


So argue away, wf3h. Show us all how unions keep plants alive.


and show us how lack of unions causes them to thrive. go ahead. we'll
wait

show us all how unions cause companies to thrive, trollboi wf3h.

OH-TAY! You lose, Buhwhee.
