Well, given the present ratio of management earnings to those that do the actual work, I think we need to give the unions far more power.
LOL... Of course ya do... But you do so on the grounds of a myth where Management is not due its earnings... Here's the thing... No management, no contract; no contract, NO labor... Now what percentage of -0- do you feel labor would be happy with? I say we give them all of it... just to be fair. But clearly you'd disagree.
Now before ya run to dismiss this, TRY to realize that this is, more or less, the official position of the UAW with regard to its GM contract right now... "Screw YOU! We're not giving another cent..." Well that sounds MOY MACHO to the Union flunkies, I'm sure; right up to the point where GM closes its doors and they (your Union Flunkies) are faced with a reality wherein they're looking at 're-training' to become a government paid functionary for $8.50 an hour, which includes benefits.
Now if we could just get Toro to paste us up a slick little chart to show how this highly likely scenario would effect the 'flationary curve... I mean clearly the cost of goods remains the same, the mortgage remains the same, but the available income... down 60/hr over 40/wk... and of course 52 weeks a year... given 'vacay' is reset to zero. So that's quite an adjustment...
Now the great thing for you here is that you can then blame management for the disaster and we do so in such a way as I would summarily agree... and wouldn't that be nice? Comity on the blog at long last... Impericists all...
In that... Management made an egregeous error in allowing their shops to EVER have become unionized... their decision to not shut those factories down and move them to Kentucky 60 years ago... where those people would have HAPPILY worked for a decent days pay for a decent days work; vastly improving THEIR LIVES; and where the resulting macro would have provided much less expensive cars and trucks to the economy over the whole of that period, easing inflationary pressures across the board.
LOL... Good call dipshit.
