You can have your unions and the jerk-off democrats who are ruining Detroit. Why do you think American-made steel is being made in Alabama instead of Cleavland? Look what they did to Detroit. A drunk on an assembly line gets paid $ 400.00 per day to screw on 6 lug nuts on with a hangover! No wonder they are in trouble. Boeing was wise enough to avoide that sort of mess.

A superintendent on a construction site told me the first time he ever voted he voted "right to work". He said he regretted it, as wages were on a downhill slide ever since. I don't know what it is about southern states. From what I saw it looked like the people were so used to the slave holder mentality that they missed the part where they became the slaves. As far as I'm concerned a working man rejecting a union is like a drunk with a headache rejecting aspirin 'cause it's "Satans' Poison".

No it is from a portrait of dude name Ignatius from the 1880s. I have no clue about Ignatius' ideology. My use of his image as my online avatar predates my using it here on FITS News. I don't acknowledge old Karl as being someone I would follow, however, I am pretty sure he would have enjoyed the universality and socialistic nature of the Internet. BTW at least I have a avatar where is yours, or does that blank generic avatar matches your own ideology? Pretty astute observation there Bill.

You must be a Boeing shareholder and as such believe that worker's well being should be depressed in order for you to reap higher stock value. Hey Seymour

Mickey Blue Eyes, don't worry. The 200 people who voted against the union made no secret about their beliefs. We don't worry about union goons. We're against unions, and in favor of the Second Amendment. Oh, yeah. Mickey Blue Eyes, don’t worry. The 200 people who voted against the union made no secret about their beliefs.

Rep. Joe Wilson gave us our desperately needed headline. No, we kicked the union out because we paid them dues and they didn’t do a thing for us. Rep.
