If you're talking about union workers though, they generally have been grossly overpaid for years.
Sure they bought plenty, but they drove their sources of income out of business. You know that. They are in a situation of their own making, and I'm not keen on paying extra to subsidize them.
The economy was much better off when they still had purchasing power.
All I can say is.....America's chickens have come home to roost!!!
No discussion about union workers earning too much money would be complete without a comment about the ridiculous salaries and bonues handed out to the worthless incompetent management types that ran their business into the ground. As always in America, there’s plenty of blame to go around.
