You seem pretty sensitive about not having a college degree, don't you?
I stated that raises should be based on increased productivity and value added to the company. I did not mention anything about a college degree.
It is OK that you do not have a college degree. I do not hold that against you. If you want to stick up for union thugs and think that the wages they have extorted from companies are fully justified, go right ahead and be a union cheerleader.
Just because a person is too stupid or too lazy to get an education or develop a skill that does not mean that they should be not able to bully their way to earning the income of an educated or skilled person, at least until reality sets in and the high wages drive the company into bankruptcy.
I have both a bachelors and masters degree, which I have already stated repeatedly on this thread.
