In Reference to the Union Shops' I understand what you are saying, I have worked for a fortune 500 Corporation. Profit Sharing and all. They gave me this glowing annual Report on all the benefits I would receive when I retired at the age of 65. The catch was that they factored in my SS and ended up paying no more than $125. a month in Pension beneits.. The Profit sharing was money that should have been paid to employees in a decent wages. Now the big catch in this Lily White Corporation came when I became aware that they were Pulling in Trailerloads of Merchandise from their home office and zeroing it out of their Inventory and stocking certain accounts on the Eastern Seaboard. I would bet that they "ripped" off close to a trillion $$$$ the 15 years I worked for them. Guess what happened to me????? Corporations will do anything the Government will allow them to. My Brothers who were Teamsters have very good Pensions... We cannot have it both ways. When you have a chance rent the Movie "MATEWAN" and then look at from both sides. Alex;-)
