Sure, those generous retirement benefits have nothing to do with the cost of manufacture. Sorry, I don’t sing the union label. The unions killed the Golden Goose.

Bull crap! The unions don’t have the power they used to have. About all they are good for now is preventing the company from working people 24/7 at below minimum wage.
Most factories aren’t even union anymore. Shows what you know. I know more people that work at non union companies than unionized ones. The one person I do know that works at a union company has had to take wage cuts for the past three years and they are looking at another cut in the very near future. Most people are barely getting by and some are just up and leaving their homes because they can’t afford the payments anymore and these are just modest older homes.
