This is just a piece of what the Raygun Administration tried to implement in very subtle ways. With the changes that were made in our Corporate Bankruptcy Laws as to who gets paid and in what order they get paid,workers were put on the bottom of the list. And now we see the end results of this legislation. Labor got their lunch handed to them and many of these folks who voted for the Ronny are now getting their deserts thrown in their faces. Nuff said!!!!
