I just can't believe some of you guys.

Take a look. When the econemy is strong it's because we have a government that if friendly to business. Look it up the information is available.

After you have done that please show me one, thats right, just one business that the unions have saved. I'm not going to say that every company that closed it's doors while having problems with the unions did so just because of the unions but the unions were a big part of it. Just how many jobs have to be sent overseas before people stop to think and understand that production cost reflects into the price of a product. If that product is made overseas a domestically produced has to be price compeditive against it.

Also tell me what on earth justifies the wages union people recieve. I know a kid, almost didn't make it out of high school. Works at the CASEIH factory in Fargo. Started about a year and a half ago. 18 bucks an hour. My daughter who spent 2 years learning to be a medical lab tech is making 19 and one of my sons, 4 year degree in computers is making 24 an hour. But this kid starts at 18 an hour as unskilled labor? And all he does is count welds? UAW job. Now go price one of the tractors they make. Ever stop to think why most of the smaller tractors even from the major brands are made overseas and imported here? I met and talked to a mid level corporate guy from CASEIH last year who told me that he would not buy anything CASEIH makes under 100HP but that to be competitive they have to have em make in Turkey and India. Now tell me how great the unions are.......
