[QUOTE="JimJimmyJames, post: 634558, member: 11425"] I am sorry but if a race to the bottom is reality, I will remain happily divorced from it. But aside from that, I will agree that government handouts are a big cause of our current problems. Too bad we fail to realize that corporate welfare, in the form of support of the military/security complex, along with privatization schemes that increase costs, decrease service but give lucrative contracts to campaign contributors, are the main pigs at the public trough. That is not even touching on the bailouts given to Wall Street, that bastion of capitalism...until they begin to fail. Then socialism suits them just fine. Anyways...as to the actions of Local 177. I do support their cause, I am just not sure if taking it "out of house" is the best idea. For reasons I am sure you would agree with Fox, in this economy, the public is definitely not going to be sympathetic to folks who are knocking on $30 an hour, or part timers who do have benefits, paid vacations/holidays, etc. [/QUOTE]
