They can all thank the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, Local 1947. So for 850 union jobs, a whole town and half the state can be negatively impacted.
I can appreciate folks wanting an honest wage and benefits, but if the choice comes down to having a job, or no job, or having a job with all the bells and whistles, guess I’d take the job and save the bells and whistles for another day.
I’m so fed up with Wisconsin, and we are a beautiful state! I can hardly wait until we move out of here. My hubby is from FDL, and works for Quad, this sucks big time. Soon Quad will see the writing on the wall (like they aren’t affected by newsweek, et al and their lib biases), Quad has plants in WV, NV, OK, luckily, hubby is in a position that’s valuable. The entire FDL community is stunned by this, completely stunned by Merc’s decision to leave. What these union thugs did was not only destroy a city, they affected the entire state. I’m so fed up with Wisconsin, Doyle and the ENTIRE crap that’s WI gov, I’m ready to move to ANYWHERE. I’m happy Merc is leaving. I really think this is our Michigan moment, and it will be hard to recover. Sad, our state is so pretty.
