I usually get my info elsewhere, but thanks just the same.

En serio, D. :-)

the only predictions i care about are whottts. if he makes'em, you know the outcome.

The drumbeat of doom has been a plodding consistency in this forum ever since the election, so maybe you can forgive a few people for getting tired of it. Not everybody is wedded to things getting worse, much much worse.

I think scabs are really really taboo up north, but I'm not sure.

They are taboo, but that's mainly because you have these guys trying to hold out for more money, and someone else is willing to work for less. No wonder why the scabs aren't liked. :D

See, I think it's stupid that workers on strike are protected. If they want to go on strike, let them. Let them do their union line in front of the business, and make consumers aware of the horrible working conditions. But I don't think they should be paid for it.

It's just a hold out from a time when things like that were necessary. It should be gone, but it persists because the special interests involved.
