Interesting, the steel companies didn't even have this kinda pathetic comeback till the union got broke...

Somedays I get the feeling you won't be happy until we are all making $50 per month.

Weakened to be sure. But, not necessarily broke..................
Besides, I think in this industry, and others, the unions had gone too far and needed to knocked back a good bit. I will agree with you there.

And, why does it have to be a "pathetic comeback", Pete? Why do you cling to your negativity with such tenacity? Is that you psychological security blanket?

Regards,
Dave
