Yeah, we need unions to do to the nuke industry what they have done to
the Grocery, Airline, Auto, Manufacturing, and so many other
industries who have been driven over the borders, and into
bankruptcy...


Please. The skills required by the steamfitters who build nuke plants
are not easily found among the non-unionized workforce. You need years
of specialized training for that kind of work.

Just because you don't have the skills necessary for high-end work
doesn't mean you have to take potshots at those who do.


My friend was an inspector/engineer at Haddam Neck... I know a lot
more than you would think. I am not sure I want an organizaton that
serves to protect the lowest common denominator from getting fired for
not doing their job, building a nuke plant.

Even you can't defend unions. Bush has nothing to do with it.

And this is just bull****. More than likely, just the opposite. Unions
protect those who could not compete in a free market society. Please
Harry, show me some statistics or research that backs up this
statement. Or, just put me in the bozo bin again
