As a person who hates unions (I once had to be in the Teamsters while Hoffa was yet alive) and as an engineeer and PhD scientist for many years (without a powerful org to defend me), I perceive that the wage-roll workers do have a point of being continually but unwillingly manipulated from either side of the controvery.

As a writer of journal-published papers, an inventor with patents, and an innovator whose lab-devised unique processes that the public has never been seen by the public but which earned multimillions for the manufacturers, I know what it is like to be forced to retire early without any old-age benefits from those selfishly-managed corporations except the Social Security income and Medicare bodily needs. But even those have been continually eroded by the ever-increasing economic inflation, much of that by unionization.

As a non-union professional, I rarely ever saw a forty-hour work week, although from job-related travel, I have stayed in some of the best hotels in the world and consumed their most elegant foods (from which I do have fading memories but nothing else).

I don't know what the pleasurable solution is for we the human race temporaroly residing in this sinful world of warped liberties, except the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ to establish His Kingdom of Righteousness and Peace to set things right.

All the outrageous fortunes received by a few "lucky" individuals does not and cannot purchase a happy existence, be it temporal or eternal, eh?
