THAT is the reason that I will nevah knowingly purchase anything made by a union.......................... And that’s the reason why everything being produced is being outsourced to other countries. Just what do we get by paying Union Dues? Its like a pyramid scam. So what if they get you a raise, or better benefits, when they do, up goes the cost of the product, which in turn makes the consumer pay more. Remember when a candy bar was 5 cents and the work week was 50 hours? OK, its down to a 40 hour week, but how much is a candy bar, the 25 cent Gal. of Gas, the $1500 new Chevy? Thanks to Unions the wages have gone up, but at what cost? How far does a dollar go today? In 50 - 60 years not much has changed, most are exactly where they would have been if this was 1955. 5K in 55’ is like 35K - 45K today. If you made 55K in 55’, you’d be upper middle class, and you could afford a Rolls Royce without making monthly payments.

My wife and I recently bought a new car. I used to be a democRAT and a Union member. I used to often say that I would never buy anything made outside of the USA. Well, we purposefully avoided buying a car made by the UAW, or any other Union for that matter.

It's payback time for these violent thugs...way past time.
