Subject: RE: BS: Poverty in the USA
For the most part, well said, but let's back up the truck a bit. I think the main reason the labour movement is 'dying', so to speak, is the fact that companies are finally beginning to smarten up and treat workers other than like a 'commodity' to be used and abused. Compnaies are realizing that paying and treating workers fairly will keep the 'leaches' out of their business by keeping the workers happy. Happy workers with fair pay and benefits want no part of a union and their blood-sucking ways. Compnaies were stupid 100 years ago, but they are starting to get it. Sorry Mick, yours is a dying breed.
