I agree with you (surprise!) ....
In Response To: Unions Fault that .... ()

... that this thread is getting overdrawn. But, I can't resist trying to correct some misunderstandings about unions.

I have been on both sides of the fence -- employer & employee. I remember the post WW II abuses in the Teamsters, Coal Miners & Railroad Unions -- shutting the country down with their strength -- even though most of us couldn't do anything about their demands. I have also seen the benefits that Unions have brought the working man & woman -- 40 hour weeks, overtime pay, pension plans, 401(k) & other profit sharing plans, medical insurance -- the list is long.

I also realize that those whose minds are "made up", as Archie Bunker would say, aren't about to change, so, no matter how inflamatory the post, I'm done with this thread. vbg
