Labor unions

Labor unions in the paper - why people hate them. There was part of the story where Gm and Ford about the difference with their attitude about Unions. It seems like Ford made money while GM lost money supposedly due to the Unionize shop. If You look at the Management as to what actually happened GM was like all the Major corporation that tried to use their excess profits to buy other Corporation and grow. This made the Management more money but in the end I put them in debt. Without the Unions where would this country be a Middle Class. Would the wages be high enough for the people live a decent life. Just think there are some job s like being a waitress where they only get 2 dollars a hour and depend upon tips to make their living. I guess this is one way the Resteurants can advertise cheap mails as they do not have to pay their employees proper wages. It always reminds of a Hamburger Joint owner who do not pay their enployess proper wages but he did not make any money. Yet he had the money to build a 5 million dollar mansion in a middle of a small river. Yet this is what the management would do if they could pay their employees slave wages.
There are some unions that could use a change in their operation such as the teachers union
that does not try to promote real but education but wants to keep the ignorant so call teachers on a payroll. There is another thought for Unions that could have brought to mind and that is the push for their members to get a better education and raise themselves up in this world. There is another thought and that would be to make a more efficient work for if for no other reason that to make the products cheaper, and keep on improving the product that they were making not just keep the status quo. It always remind me of a job that I was on and the Union would make the ignorant or lazy person the Foreman so that he would not interfere with the quality of the work being done. Of course do these corporations promote the best qualified people to positions of Authority? One of the answers usually is that if the best person is promoted then the product does not come out to standard. So in the end the everybody suffers. The corporations and the working people. The management always seems to bring in people that will make the Corporation expand but not take care of emploees or the product that is produce. I have said this before as the Management will put the companies in debt and expect the Employees and the consumers to pay for their type of growth. The unions help keep this type of problems from happening as they will require some of that money to pay for increased wages instead of the phony growth of the Management. Enough said.
