If you believed that unions once made sense or were needed in this country and are no longer necessary, how does that change anything? Overseas manufacturing wasn't a result of labor unions, but of chasing the bottom dollar, mostly from publicly traded corporations who care more about their market share than about their employees. Factories have already migrated from places like China, to Bangladesh where they can get away with paying even less, as well as escape any safety regulations.

The unions unreasonable demands are exactly why they went overseas. Not just overseas, but to places like Tennessee and other southern right to work states Trust me I know all about this. I watched it all happen from a front row seat growing up in Detroit. It's a global economy now. The companies aren't going to pay someone $45 an hour (that includes health care pension, benefits etc.) to screw on the same bolt over and over all day long. It's a simple reality. The 50s, 60s, and 70s are over. Those jobs are gone and they're not coming back. The sooner people realize that, the better off they'll be.

It's a new world Steven. Either adapt to it and flourish, or live in the past and collect your measly govt. handouts while b!tching the whole time and reminiscing about how things used to be.

I prefer to adapt. How about you?

M'lady - are you suggesting that children should be tasered as a form of discipline?

You two are starting to take this too far with this M'lady talk. You're creeping me out.
