[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 957897, member: 60724"] Eddie, All great points. I'm not blaming unions for anything. A certain amount of reversal of concessions is fine. Employees should be well compensated. I just don't like to feed into this whole "worker drone" vs "corpororate fat-cat" mentality. Pitting boss against worker won't solve things in the long-haul. At a certain point, some of the concessions made by unions the past few years could be viewed as "right sizing", taking benefits to where they are more aligned with the non-unionized sectors. I expect that is a hard pill to swallow, but may be what is needed for the long-haul to keep these companies profitable for decades to come. Of course, said concessions are really hard to swallow when the execs at the top are making ridiculous salaries and positioning the company into tactical positions. Still, as I said above in my lengthy post, don't HATE the player (CEO), hate the game (defined by stock market investors of today). TJR [/QUOTE]
