But workers get a LOT more benefits than without the unions. If it were not so your industry wouldn't have fought the war they fought on unions (and I think they won, pity for you).

Agreed. But I'm in a relatively good economic situation. Live in a good neighborhood, send my daughter to second most expensive univ. in the country... No, I'm not loaded, it certainly demands a lot of work, saving, sacrifice, and luck. > If you live in a banana republic like the one run by Chavez, who is > enriching himself while the people suffer... perhaps revolution is the answer. You should remember Chavez IS the revolution. He is a DEMOCRATIC leader (yes, he was ELECTED in UN supervised elections) and he is instituting changes approved by the MAJORITY of his people, though not by the industrial and economic elite. BTW, I don't like him but the point is the people of his country like him. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
