Unions have a lot to do with jobs going else where IMO. The auto workers union is a good example. I know a few workers who get paid real good money and have substantial benefits for doing a job that a trained chimp can do. Long Shoreman have a sweet deal as well. Unions have their place and are needed for keeping companys from becoming dictatorial. Unfortunately theyare not interested in having salaries decided by the market rate. Minimum wage should be abolished. The higher we raise the minimum wage the more the CONSUMER pays for goods and services. Same thing when the liberals want to raise taxes on business. The tax is passed onto us and we have to spend more to make up for the increased taxes.

Socialism rewards mediocrity. Communism enforces it.
