You said — “The UAW however, needs to go completely out of business.”
This is a “mantra” that is invoked, but is something that will never happen. I see the same thing on the Obama birth certificate issue. There’s an overwhelming demand and desire (by many on Free Republic) to get Obama’s birth certificate out. However, given the “state of affairs” of all our leaders (our own) and our media (our own) who don’t support it, it’s not going to happen. They’re not recognizing the “reality” of the situation.
And likewise, here, people are not recognizing the reality of the situation. What happens is that in *more dire economic circumstances* unions will start gaining more people to get on board — *precisely* because many more people will feel the effects that they feel are unwarranted towards them, namely being unemployed for nothing that they did. They will organize even more.
You know what has been more devastating to unions in the past — it was the *success* of the average American worker, who didn’t feel like they had to join a union in order to better themselves.
BUT, with about 25% unemployment (as it was in the last Great Depression) more people will “get on board” for unions in order to improve their own personal circumstances. Face it, people are going to improve their own personal circumstances and that of their own family — regardless of any esoteric political philosophies that people argue about on boards... LOL...
Never happen.
Combining many different and unrelated scenarios isn’t doing anything for your creds either.
The dimwits are married to the unions, and they will take the entire country down trying to maintain this incest. This will be the end of the dems for many, many election cycles.
As for people being unemployed for “nothing they’ve done” sorry, no such situation exists. They choose their field, and do not keep other options for employment open (even being self employed). More new small busineses were created during the great depression (per capita) than at any other time in US history. It will happen again. Look it up.
