When the people complain they have no bread ---don't tell them just to eat cake McDonalds.

More likely, they'll be working there. Actually, I think Mickey D's is one of the largest employers in america, whats the number, something like 1 in 8 people either does or has worked for them?

I'm in agreement that we are seeing a development of the two-class system. It is not economically healthy. Instead of trying to kill the unions here, I think we need to export the idea. It would help raise the work environment standards in third world countries and would make it where companies produced their products in the country that consumed them since labor costs would be more equitable. The world is strongest with a strong middle class and unions help achieve that. IMHO.

I should say I am pro-Union and pro-Non-Union. I think the system is strongest with both.
