This is a bit off topic but I thought this might interest you ..........
Wanta know what happened to the folks that lost all those millions of industrial jobs?
Wanta know why there are not thousands at every Kerry Rally sobbing in fitful unison?
Wanta know why their sorry fate is not on CBS every evening with Dan Rather whimpering in the background?
Here is the 'tator take on the subject!

I live in the "Rust Belt". Allis Chalmers, Briggs & Stratton, American Motors, AOSmith, Allen Bradley & many others... I know many former employees of those companies, many were union "activists", spewing the union line about the "common working guy". Helped run a small manufacturing company & told the guy in charge of hiring to quietly hire away from former union workers, cuz most of the ones we had hired in the past didn't understand that their job had anything to do with getting the job done.
I'm not against unions. I'm against unions that get so powerful they think they can & should run the company that employs their members.
How did we end up discussing this topic in this particular thread? lol
