[QUOTE="twnjrspc, post: 174252, member: 6850"] And that's all you have to say? You show your true colors when you bad mouth TDU. Really! What have we done to you? Is this the first time in your 30 years and out that you've taken a stand to fight? I've fought the good fight for 20 some years, do you want to insult me for that? Other than create hate and discontent, where were you, and what part do you take during the recent Teamster election? Simply put,this situation is no different than our Governments, that are elected to represent us. For hundreds of years they have been corrupted, and have failed us. Does that mean we revoke our citizenship, and what rights, benefits, and protections we have, to follow a handful of people that have divised an untested plan, that merely exists on paper?
