My Opinion, I think the resistance by Bush in bailing out the auto industry |
|
is his last chance to forever bust the UAW and therefore bust Unions for good. Why else would he have thrown so much money at his buddies on Wall Street but doesn't want to help us on Main Street??? You bust the UAW, the Teamsters go next and everyone tumbles because "we (the Unions) need to make sacrifices".

1. I don't think he thinks of that, at all. I think the money has to be |
|
skimmed off for his friends benefit. He has no interest in the working class or our democracy. If he can break another union it's just a by product of the big money theft to his friends and benefactors.

3. His 'advisor's' (Big Dick) are telling him this would make him a hero forever |
|
among 'true' Conservatives. The ONE policy I remember above all others of Ronnie Raygun his his destruction of the air traffic controllers Union in the 80's, which started the decline of Unions in this country to the point it is today. I'm sorry, but I truly think it's part of the plan.

13. Personally, I mark the beginning of the decline for unions with the passage of the Taft-Hartley Act. |
|
That was something Truman was against, but the conservatives held enough seats to override his veto. Post-Taft-Hartley, rates of unionization actually leveled off and started a slow decline by the end of the 1960s going into the 1970s. With the 1980s, the decline increased in speed well into the 1990s and into today.

2. There's nothing in it for him and his friends. He's using it to bargain for Columbia Free Trade. |
|
Who knows why he is trying to push through the Columbia Free Trade deal, but you know there's money in it for the Bush crime family.

4. The Colombians are another Union unfriendly country. |
|
Sorry again, but this makes more sense after watching Unions struggle for the past 25 years. It's the death blow. GM and Ford go bankrupt, all the Union members are fired and re-hired at way less than prevailing wage and minimal benefits.
All too common today. American Axle did it to us, threatened bankruptcy, re-negotiated our contract, than closed most of their American plants and moved production to Mexico and Asia.

7. The first thing I thought... |
|
Bush wants to be remembered as a bigger union buster than Reagan. That really impresses his real base the wealthy 2%.

9. To Booshe, those are his base, those he enriched during his terms |
|
One day, long after I've gone, the truth about this dirt bag will come out. But for America it will be too late.
