Since 1950 the unions have succeded in two areas, corruption and killing jobs. and how did wall street do in the last 3 years? number of jobs created? none. pay increases to the middle class? none unemployment? 8,000,000 jobs lost thanks wall street! About 90,000,000 jobs. And think, the taxpayer didn't pay for any of them. More like 20,000,000 but who is counting. How many jobs did GM bailout create? Zero. They were long gone jobs. Plenty a UAW/CAW out of work. Because people didn't need nor want their over priced crap. So keep a GM, loose a Ford job...corruption. Unions need a leash. -- There is a sucker born every minute, liberals and our politicians are counting on it. |

Since 1950 the unions have succeded in two areas, corruption and killing jobs. No argument there. All the so-called union corruption from 1950 to the present day does not add up to a large percentage of corporate corruption since 1980. -- The Tea Party's teabaggers are just the Republican base by another name. |

We have already established that you are making more money than me, just not more solvent. and i havent had a pay increase in 10 years. nor have the other 100M americans in the middle class I suggest you find another job. I don't know anyone who has not had some kind of raise in the last few years and several over the last 10 years. Maybe it is time you moved on, your particular company is screwing you and has you convinced it is that way for everyone. That is simply not true. pbuharic would rather soak in the pity, or full of BS. Mind you, with the pity me attitude, maybe that is why he doesn't get a raise. and you just love grabbing your ankles anyone with a 7 figure bank account tells you to. it's what you live for |

The unions largely just priced themselves out of the market for any job that could be exported. That is why the only unions that survive nationally are government unions. uh no. if that were the case then the germans would be in worse shape than we are. 80% of their economy is export related, and their level of unionization is FAR greater than ours. more right wing bull**** The Germans do not demand the kind of things American unions have demanded. They are also holding the Greek's feet to the fire for the stupid things their workers have negotiated for. the germans have ALOT more vacation time than we do. they have ALOT better unemployment insurance than we do. and it's a meaningless statement to say that american unions have 'demanded' something the germans havent the fact is that 1. the rich have destroyed labor unions 2. the middle class wants to think of itself as 'professional' so hates labor unions THAT'S why there are no unions here You also have a far more frugal society in Germany. They actually have private savings, beyond what the pension plans save for them. which has zip to do with labor unions. and americans have no pensions, either. see a pattern here? americans -no wage increase in 10 years -no pension -work harder than any other industrialzed country -rotten unemployment insurance -no health insurance if you lose your job and no labor unions... gee....wonder if there's a connection |
