So let's see...you would rather have your tax paying dollars wasted on bloated, wasteful unions that have employees that can show up to work drunk, literally, and not be fired.
What you are basically advocating is that Bush open up the furnace and start shovelling money into probably the most bloated, unproductive sector of society.
Instead, what he is doing, which seems prudent to me, is looking for the most qualified, competitive bid and handing the work out to that bidder.
Did I say the word """"UNION""" in my post? Did I advocate hireing more govt workers? All I said is that contractors who work for the govt should hire American citizens instead of foreign outsourced labor,,,who has a problem with that?
BTW,learn to read the words and not read things into someones posts here..
I don't like to see my tax money wasted on those outfits either, but the bigger problem is that the skills and infrastructure go overseas. If it goes to China, we are aiding our future enemy.
There was a movie some years ago called "The Second American Civil War" and they had a scene when American tanks couldn't move. No parts were available as they had to get them from overseas.
Not too far off the mark.
