That's funny. I was having a conversation about the unions and and trying to get anything done cost effectively up in that area.



Many moons ago I had to do some set up at industrual shows in NY MA And CT.

We had to pay for union labor to just run a fork lift to take just one box off of a truck, riggers to walk along side of the box while it was being moved and to open the box.

Once opened they wanted us to pay for an electrition, even if he just sat there and watched. All we had was one cord to run less then 100 watts of power.

The exact same display set up in NH or VA cost us about $2000.00 less to set up.

All those extra fees went right back to the consumer when the product was sold.

A union trash man in NY with over time can make as much as $90,000. a year!

That's just nuts!

In VA Lucent Tec. ended up going out of business and thousands lost there jobs because of a strike. They had janitors making over $18.00 an hour back in the early 90's.

Now were losing the baker that makes Twinkys because of a union. 18,000 people out of work. How is that helping anyone.
