[QUOTE="PobreCarlos, post: 936545, member: 16651"] 804brown; When the people elect him, via a defined democratic process, SPECIFICALLY to sign such documents, then "yes", it *IS* "democracy". Seems those who you term this "bunch of rich folks" actually are the overwhelming majority of those who voted in the last Hoosier gubernatorial and representative elections. And it also seems that those who would FRUSTRATE the free choice of the majority of the voters are those who are ANTI-"democracy". What, to your mind, is "democracy"? Any and everything that supports YOUR - and yours alone! - political opinions? If so, fortunately the people (read "the voters") in Indiana don't appear to agree with you. They've seen the "benefits" FORCED "unionism" brought to their State....and they DEMOCRATICALLY decided that they no longer wanted any part of it. As for "where are the jobs"....well, they seem to be coming. Note the uproar in London, Ontario concerning Cat's Electro-Motive plant being closed, with the production slated to be moved to Indiana...and why the locals there say that the timing of the closure - and the move - may not benot coincidental. Reference..... Caterpillar closes locomotive plant ....or..... What will it take to win the lockout at Electro-Motive Diesel? | Toronto Media Co-op ....or..... Caterpillar pulls plug on London plant - The Globe and Mail Here's a relevent quote from the last reference.... "Union officials and other observers expect a new Progress Rail plant in Muncie, Ind., to be the beneficiary. The closing was announced 36 hours after Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels signed so-called right-to-work legislation, which makes it more difficult for unions to organize. 'IT'S POSSIBLE THAT'S A COINCIDENCE, BUT DOUBTFUL', said Mike Moffat, a professor at University of Western Ontario in London who has followed the lockout closely." Hoosier tend to like news like that. [/QUOTE]
