AAM got hit with a parasite, the union, which killed it. One thing that could have helped the situation is for the union to agree to cut its dues to $0. In my wife’s case, that would be more than $1K per year difference in disposable income.

Not sure, but I’ll bet the union reps still have jobs with the UAW somehow.

Many small business owners earn less than their lowest paid employee nowadays. Will you not be happy until profit margins are cut to zero?

Who will then grow the business, invest in R&D, and most importantly, pay the idiotic corporate taxes and the settlements foisted on them by the tort bar.

Capital does not go where it cannot grow. Why, after 6000 years can liberals not get that through their thick red and pink skulls?

A&P food company, too. The unions wouldn't cave. The company backed the trucks up to the building one night, loaded the equipment, and locked the doors. Thousands lost their jobs.
The factory building has since been torn down.It was HUGE.

Which is exactly why I also have to work for "the man" to make ends meet in addition to running a company.
