[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know you love unions. However, unions price themselves right out of business. They demand pay that's unrealistic.

Just look at many of our domestic car companies.  The workers demand X pay. Meanwhile, the consumer gets sticker shock and stops purchasing cars, so lots of unsold cars sit for months or longer. The car manufacturers have literally put a bunch of features on cars that people don't want, to raise the price so they can pay the union's wage demands.

Meanwhile a car company halfway around the world can bring you a lower cost product even with shipping it here. Guess where the consumer is going?

How the hell do you expect to demand a certain wage when people stop purchasing your product altogether? Where do you think your pay comes from?[/quote]

You're right. Let's just keep paying CEOs 300 times the pay of the average worke, and give them tax cuts too![/quote]
The US is the only developed country where the executive pay far exceeds the regular worker's wages.  That causes a huge pay gap, which in turn leads to unhappy masses.  The US also has one of the lowest minimum wage in the developed world.
