Hi Brit,
It looks like our countries are going to share one more thing, union thugs, Birth of the first global super-union. Now we’ll have Big Business and Big Labor and the rest of us will get squashed in between. Happy New Year!
Of course, I’m not really sure how we can have labor unions in the US. After all, they have the power to deny a person’s right to work at a given job based on a non-job related characteristic, not paying union dues. Now, if the Government, or a business, or even a private individual did that, Big Trial Lawyers, in the form of the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) would have them in court faster than Big Organized Crime can take their cut off the top. Yet, somehow, liberal groups and liberal politicians think it’s just fine to let labor unions extort money from the common working person? How strange.

I would be surprised if there were ever a Super Union. Several years ago, the UAW,Steelworkers and Machinist unions tried merger talks for a mega union, but ego’s and who has power got in the way.
I would think the same would happen.

Hi Larry,
I agree, but, one has to keep an eye on these things 😉
