[QUOTE="Serf, post: 1268421, member: 50254"] Thanks. In an attempt to answer the question. For me its a huge problem. One that has been building for some time. If true Republicans want smaller Government, G.W. Bush totally disregarded that school of thought. Which is why I can't back him hard. Also, however poor a public speaker he was, I admired his temperament and manner. That counts for something I think. Around my parts Union means "has to pay double for the same work someone else could or would do for less." And that's not a total snub on Unions. I do think workers should have rights. And I am willing to bet if Express met some of the demands it's employees had (like a wage progression scale, benefits, pension) it would make alot of people happy in lieu of unionizing. Secondly, the way politics have been since G.H. Bush left office is the problem building I am referring to. The Democratic party went from men like Roosevelt, Truman, and Kennedy to Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. It went from moderate liberal foundation to PROGRESSIVE LIBERALISM. Which is completely different than what the party was founded on and borders more on socialism. That being said Republicans haven't done themselves any favors with adapting, or appealing to people who want to believe there is more than the status quo. In the history of America when the wealthy corporations did well, so did the little guys. It's never been the opposite where the little guy did well and the big corporations suffered. Do we just choose to forget that Fred S employs over 250,000 people. And even more world wide. It sounds like the corny slogan "you should just be thankful to have a job!" But at the end of the day when you have lambs leading us instead of lions what do you expect? [/QUOTE]
