Unions can be useful.... I have a friend who after 30 years would clearly be fired and replaced by three new employees with no experience because, to a director it looks like he or she saved money and so can be guaranteed a promotion.....

Where I disagree with Unions is that they have no accountability. If they negociate a scrappy deal or employees get no salary increase, they should give back to the employee as a padding or a rainy day situation considering union members do continue to pay the ever increasing fee of union membership.

I see unions here in Quebec(Canada) becoming fabulously rich while their scrape by...

Just look at companies that have seamstresses, they will offer full suits for the higher strata of society and yet the working conditions are like sweat shops.... And they are unionized which makes you wonder how bad it could get....

It feels, from my perspective that unions are useful so long as people can opt out and vote anonymously which is not always the case....

I would rather focus on billionaire and millionaire than CEO since both are not automatically interchangeable.... .

You can be a CEO In a small business without being a millionaire of the same category as the one of United HealthCare

I believe it was Robert Reich who spoke about the difference eif CEO in the 1970's were profit margins where in the 30-40% versus to now where the goal is 100%....

Well.... Would we bring back jobs such as producing copper pipes....

We mine it and send it to China and pay incredibly high prices for a product that we produce in vast quantities....

The same goes for clothing and food let's face it...

We produce enough dairy for our needs, the smae for wheat and wood....

So... We could be auto sufficient.... But prices would rise... But jobs would also be in higher quantities

Well I think the real question should be, why isn't the democratic party being sued for preventing other political parties from presenting themselves....

The issue is that with a two party system it permits bit sides to take its population for granted..... No real competition
