  • @adhocrat1 I HATE PEOPLE LIKE U POOR GRAMMAR IS THAT THE SMART CRAP YOU CAN SAY fight union control, union control is not good for business it's gaming & control price fixxing hire and firer kill competitiveness on the world market, UNIONS MUST DIE OR AMERICA WILL BE DEAD. . BUSINESS HAS KNOW THIS FOR 20YRS NOW IT'S A WORLD SET MARKET SET PRICE KILLS COMPETITVENESS

  • UNIONS SET PRICES BUT AFTER AMERICA STARTED A WORLD MARKET THE WORLD MARKET SET PRICES BUT UNIONS SET PRICES IN AMERICA, AT ONE TIME UNIONS WAS GOOD, BUT NOW UNIONS KILL competitiveness AND THE LOSE OF JOBS OVER SEA PROVES IT

  • poor sentence structure, lack of grammar, and a total misunderstanding of the racist basis of American labor union.

    If this is what is being taught to our students, then heaven help us.

  • @GunsNRosesbitches Thanks.

  • @JoshMan522 You are anti-globalization, according to what you said.

  • @GunsNRosesbitches Then repute, rather than merely slag.

  • @JoshMan522 Now what you just said is entirely bullshit.

  • Now they are the corrupt ones. Forcing people to support an organization against their will, if they want to work.

  • @SanguineBullet667 Too bad people fought to end childhood labour, isn't it? Too bad our kids aren't off WORKING instead of mooching off the system with all this FREE schooling... why should I pay for teachers, books, schools or school buses? If we were smart, we'd have our kids working in factories for a dollar day instead of shipping off jobs to the 3rd world. TEACH? Screw that! You should have have a whip in your hand and beat them into a 14 hr. work day! That would fix the economy!

  • @SanguineBullet667 The PIIGs have been run largely by right wing gov'ts in the last 10

    years, Spain aside (under Aznar up until a few years ago followed by a left wing government which continued on, not socialist policies, but neo-liberal

    policies from the EU). It is the one PIIGS whose crisis was due to continued and increased reliance on the liberalization of foreign

    access to property, which is the result of capitalist lobbying and

    harmonisation of capitalist financial tools across the EU.
