We live in a free market capitalist system...

Yes, WE do; the Chinese do not. How there possibly be "free trade" between the US and China?

...where people lose jobs in cyclical economic downturns. It happens. That's life. You come up with a better system, and I'm all ears. But in the meantime, this is the best system man has ever known. And actually, Bush has bent over backwards to these AFL-CIO and Pat Buchanan cretans to try to prop up their jobs at everyone else's expense (especially the very poor). But even this can't save their dying industry. I can't speak for Bush (I'm sure he cares), but if ultra leftist unions lose their jobs, well, I can't think of a more deserving group.

You missed my point. That's 2.6 million people potentially voting against Bush. I hope he doesn't brush them off as glibly as you do.

They already do! And the unions they give all their money to, more importantly, bankroll the opposition to conservativism in America. Am I supposed to be crying that these people and the evil they bankroll are out of jobs? Look, I hope they get jobs somewhere else in non-union sectors as soon as possible.
