Hugh....you and rusty have both hit the nail on the head. And not to bash anyone...or start an argument. Besides the stockholder it is the worker him/herself. It's a never ending circle.. "I need a raise because........" you can put your own finish to it. After a bit...and this is common sense guys...you all know it..complain about it.. it all comes full circle at some point in time. Things can't keep going up and up and up. There is a ceiling and the ceiling has been hit....HARD. I'll admit...I have a sour taste for unions...but they are just as much to blame as anyone else. They share the blame. Striking for more pay...more benefits. Harder to let someone go. Job security..etc etc etc. A few rotten apples figured out they can slack and not get fired. Poor quality work and still get paid. It's like a rolling snowball. It got bigger and bigger and bigger. There went the work ethics...our kids have heard it for years... and we now reap what we have sown. Now the circle has closed. The US worker has reached the top of the pay scale and said they need more. Econ 101...supply and demand. The company has said no more and moved on. Focusing on the stockholder instead of the "family". Just think what this country would be like if the farmer had the capability of doing what the union worker has done for years. The cost of gas would be miniscule compared to the food bill everyone would be faced with. My flame retardant suit just got zipped up and I'm off my soapbox.
