of the biz that, after 6 years of exemplary work, on my part, fired me over daring to run a unionization attempt. Bet he wished he'd given me a 20k a year raise, cause I cost him 60k to stop the union, Then, to stave off any other such attempts, he had to give 80 people a 2% cost of living increase every year, probably 10k a year back then and 30k per year today. since inflation averages 5% per year, people were still getting screwed. Trump's 4% annual growth of the economy gets nobody ahead, either. You need 10% growth, , just to have 3% REAL growth, after taxes and inflation.

People are stupid. give them a year of prosperity and they'll make 2 more kids, even tho 2 kids mean that the prosperity will have to continue for 25 more years, and it never does so. You can adopt a 5 year old kid when you and the wife are 55. By then, you can and should have at least a million$ well invested. That's just 25k per year, well invested, for 30 years. if the 2 of you can't manage that, best not have any kids.

Was that AC&R in Chatham?

I've seen first hand what unionization has done to the Michigan that I grew up in. Completely destroyed it. I've also seen (and for a short while participated in) a unionized government-contract project when I was at nasa from 1988-1993. Destroyed motivation, work ethic, and incentives. Any employee of mine is free to start a unionization push, just as they'd be free to quit their job and walk off any day they so choose; they're not my slaves and can end our relationship at any time. What the wimps and parasites forget is that I have that same right to end the relationship any day that I choose to. I won't have a union shop. I'm morally opposed to them and if forced by the govt to have one, I'd sell the business and cash out first.

So you tried to do something that was bad for the the guy who wrote your paychecks, he fired you for it, and now decades later you start whining in public that you should have killed him. What a spastic, whiny freak.


Wow. You're in your 60's, and supposedly are doing pretty much that very thing; with the wife's daughter. Do you have that million dollars that your very own pontification says you should?

Assuming not, is your pontification wrong, or does it just not apply to you?
