I agree with everything in your post with the exception about Unions. Yes they are corrupt....but stop and think for a minute about the "dying industries"...these dying industries in the US BECAME FLOURISHING INDUSTRIES in third world countries at the expense of the American BLUE COLLAR worker. Now that white collar workers are suffering the same fate that blue collar workers have endured over the last 15 years, it becomes a "hot" topic.

Hmmmmmm manufacturing industries here in the northeast have been completely gutted in the last 15 years.

Welcome to the club. Enjoy your search for a McJob or two.

It wasn't just the "blue collar" jobs that went out the door at around that time. It was many of the so-called "hi-tech" positions involving electronic assembly and testing. Those positions started heading south to Mexico back in the 80's. Now they've jumped the ocean to China in order to utilize free slave labor rather than paying someone in Mexico a dollar a day.
