I've never been a union guy,I've always despised their politics and the hard feelings toward unions isn't because of the wages and benefits that they've negotiated over the years. It's their political involvement and some of the rediculous protectionism or "job security" guarantees that they've won through negotiations that have turned so many people against them.
NOW....with that said,Earl I agree with everything you said. And that might surprise a lot of you. But I've seen what happens to a community when the union jobs go away. The ONLY thing keeping the economy of our community going right now are the union pensions. When those retirees are gone,so is the economy around here. I never thought I'd say these things,but when the truth hits you right in the face everyday,you can't deny it.

It's just a shame that when they were in all their glory,they painted such a big bullseye on their backs with the greed and political ambition of their highest leaders.
