General Discussion

The GOP turned the word "union" into a dirty word and Reagan gutted the power of unions. The sad thing is that I know plenty of retired union line workers from that era who have pretty darned good retirements now but vote for Republicans. It's one more example of people who only care about their own little world. They can't see the big picture of how advocating and voting for people who come after you actually benefits everyone.

Bottom line - we are a selfish country, supposedly the richest country in the world and still we are never satisfied.
