You keep talking about unions, form one.

in the US you can't form a union without getting fired.

You missed the whole concept of unions. The point used to be that the
workers were so important to the operation that you couldn't fire them
all. Are you saying that you are so expendable that if your whole
office walked out, the company could replace you immediately?
We may be touching on why you haven't had a raise in 30 years.

let me type this slowly so you can read it

NO

ONE

IN the MIDDLE CLASS has had a raise in 30 years

so, then, right whiner...tell me. do you think i'm 100,000,000
americans?

because NONE OF US has h ad a raise you blithering idiot.

i dont know how many ways i can tell you that. i'm just concluding
you're too stupid to read

I know the world thinks unions are all just take but I grew up around
the people who built the Teamsters union (yes I knew Hoffa) and there
was a lot of pain in that process.

golly. i grew up in the steel town of pittsburgh

nah. we had no unions there...

BTW the biggest union busters in government were democrats.
I also understand in a NAFTA/GATT world, unions are not really going
to work until you can organize China, India, Mexico and Vietnam. It is
not an American problem.

and, of course, NAFTA was negotiated by george bush.

and, yes, unions will work just fine. they work in the EU where german
workers are heavily unionized and they have a competitive export
oriented economy
