Great comment:

Kinda like how the Unions drove the rubber jobs out of Akron in the 70s and early 80s.

Yet Akron still votes Democrat and worships this very union...makes about as much sense as a cow voting for Hamburger Helper...

Very true though. I live in Akron, Ohio and the blue-collar Union Democrat attitude still prevails...our economy has recovered from the 70s rather well in retrospect...but it amazes me how many guys who were laid off from Goodyear in 1979 still swear that the unions are God...
