<<Engineers can ill afford to wander off into abstract domains.>>


Well, there you have it. Democracy is an abstract idea. So is humanity.

<< They are the realists and not theorists. The capitalists exploit the workers and the union leaders also exploit the workers. Why do union leaders not allow union balloting be secret. If they feel that they truly represent the interests of their workers then what are they afraid of. As I said you are unable to distinguish between unions and union leaders. Obama gets it right.>>

Well isn't that ironic. You say engineers do not wander off into abstractions, yet you muse (deduce) about whether unions of capitalist pigs are better for the worker.

Theory.

Yet I simply correlated unions with the welfare and income of the middle class.

Realist.

Ironic, no-lol?
