You just gotta love the republican “fuck the workers” mentality.

Actually, in the real world, that you don't seem part of; it boils down to a cost-benefit analysis.
Last time I checked, Kellogg's as a private business, is not indebted to give out welfare like a runaway progressive Gov't!!

Warehouse workers are usually bottom pay grade.

You mean $22 in 1980? Well, that was a fair wage!

Go away, Canuck. You're the reason cereal is so expensive

Yeah, this is where the rubber meets the road for those who still support the supply side having unlimited rights to pay less and cancel out benefits too.
Then they have to put on their other hat and condemn China for creating Walmart's marketplace.

So in the final analysis, Kellogg packs up and moves to China so they can stay competitive with the no-name brand. With Chinese labour too!

The union made em do it.

If anything, this story proves the unions inability to do anything at all.

Warehouse workers are usually bottom pay grade.

Are they all warehouse workers? Assembly line workers? Maintenance workers? I know on maintenance I'd laugh at that pay.

I doubt maintenance workers are paid what warehouse workers are paid.

There's a lot of learning involved in discussing the pros and cons of unions.

Wit unyuns dere is strengt!

 

[struth]

It's really something. Their rural towns crumble and die at the hands of the ruling class for decades, and all they do is demand more of it.

hahaa yeah look at Detroit and Baltimore

 

[Augustine_]

It is better to replace them than move to Mexico like NABISCO did.

Kellogg already has the same number of factories in Mexico as here. And NABISCO doesn't give a shit about you, either.

 

[Augustine_]

hahaa yeah look at Detroit and Baltimore

You're the one demanding more, though. I'm sure they don't thank you for it.

yes i want more businesses…more people working, more products and services being sold

you are right, i am asking for booming economy

i demand more. Without it. you wouldn’t have that computer you’re typing on…so sit back, enjoy, you’re welcome

 

[Donald H]

Yeah, that happened a long time ago. Somebody mentioned that Nabisco went to Mexico and that must have put Kellogg in a lot of trouble and grief.

True and faithful commitment to capitalism says that nobody can or should stop big corporations from moving out of America.
That's the rules of the game!

And alternately, nobody has any obligation to buy American when the no-name Corn Flakes are just as good. Supply and demand will sort it all out.

OH, and capitalism recognizes the right of the worker to bargain collectively. That's the deal! As can companies fire who they damn well please!

I write this stuff because hardly anybody knows it.

Lol your peasant ass thinks you had something to do with the production of my computer

You have a valid point there lassy! Supporting good living wages makes cereal and everything else expensive.

Mandarin oranges are cheaper than Cal and Florida oranges now and I always like the Mandarins better anyway.

 

[Donald H]

Of course. Invisible hand of the market and all that. If we can't compete with the slaves over there, we need to have our own over here.

Yes, that's the only way!
SLM! Some!

What you said is no secret. The ruling class has never felt the need to hide their war against unions or their efforts to outsource jobs.

Yeah and the point is that they got what they wanted by destroying unions and collective bargaining.
And now they suddenly are realizing that wasn't what they wanted.

So they're left to make the best of a fkd up marketplace by marching off to Walmart to buy the biggest screen t.v., for the lowest price!

So solly, he get made in China.
