But watch out for the thread nannies anyway.
i believe any honest and working man or woman in america should choose a profession that pays enough to support their spending habits. better yet, don't have kids if you can't afford them. get a used car if you can't afford a new one. camp for vacation, don't go to Florida. live within your means, or choose a different profession.

How kind of you! (droll, droll...) The author should have titled this one, " A Tree Doesn't Grow in Brooklyn." But I am not sure that the desire to paid for work you didn't do and the notion that things can't work without you applies only to unions....Kinda sounds like management to me....parsy the still lovelorn.
And I don't want to hear any garbage about the "good" unions either, because their aren't any.
They bilk their members for dues (many times you have no choice) they reward tenure as opposed to performance, they encourage lazyness and punish initiave.
Their fat cat officials are seldom heard from and even more seldom seen, they breed corruption and contempt for true capitalism.
Little Neil Cavouto (?) on FOX said yesterday that the average union employee get's a 2% increase in wages annualy.
They are a socialist construct backed with Federal force.
The only union situation I could endorce would be a bunch of guy's threatning to out right quit if their demands weren't met. But your typical unionite doesn't want to quit, he just wants to extort more money than his position is worth from his employer and the consumer.
It's funny, when me and my unionite buddy go shopping he is actively looking for the "Union Made" label.. While I go out of my way to avoid it. You should hear some of the fight's that follow.
(He will probably key my car over it.. but, eh.. )
