OK, I know I tend to go off on tirates when it comes to Unions and how they are partly responsible for our current economic crisis... Well that and consumer stupidity combined with the never ending greed of the banks.
Today's little news tidbit really got my blood pumping. Apparently the US Democrats, being the lefties they are, have decided keeping Union Wages in the auto plants is more important than actually saving those jobs. SAY WHAT, give your heads a fucking shake people, THERE IS NO MONEY. Sorry to say, the cash cow has run out of milk.
I have said it before and I will say it again, Unions will cause the death of society. Yes, at one point in time they did help. The thing is, the need for unions has diminished. Fact of the matter is, if Unions were not so demanding, many low education jobs would not be farmed out to Asia. Of course there are other factors, however stripping the power of the unions would be one piece of the puzzle.
For those who still don't understand, here is a simple layout on how unions are fucking over the economy:
- Busines owners are in business to make money. They take the risks so therefor they deserve a profit. That and investors and RRSP Funds also need that profit as their income depends on those companies being profitable.
- Union workers come in and say, wait a minute, we want more money because we need to be a couple steps above the cost of living index so we can buy Hummer's and other Big Trucks Ugg Ugg, penis needs power.
- An increase in wages increases the cost of making and delivering products. Companies now need to balance things out so their investors and those holding RRSP's don't get pissed off and dump the stock, or worse the company doesn't go out of business. To get this money back, the company must raise the price of their products and or services. These costs get passed down the chain effecting everyone in various sectors of the economy.
- Whoa, hold on everything costs more, union workers start to bitch, we can't afford gas for our bug trucks, we can't afford Beer, Cigarette's and other essentials. So what happens next??? The Fucking Union goes on strike because, yes once again, they want more Fucking money.
Can you see this trend. Eventually, corporate and investor need for profit results in labour out sourcing, which then creates a trade deficit and money devaluates.
OK, so this might be an over simplification of things, but it is happening and will continue to happen so long as these Dumb ass Union leaders are dragging the world around by the short and curlies.
City workers wages increase taxes
Teachers wages increase taxes
Increase taxes increase cost to do business
This increases cost of products
Production union guys see themselves needing more money to pay for this
They go on strike this increases cost of products
Teachers and City workers start to bitch
and the death grip continues
