Most of those union workers have enough skills to bag your groceries and thats about it

The biggest problem is these guys will be on unemployment for as long as possible after getting canned THEN refuse GREAT jobs for them offering $10-$13 an hour because they're used to being way overpayed.

They've known unskilled labor jobs have been on the way out for like 20+ years now. Most of the factory workers I know have been taking advantage of programs out there to get FREE educations! These guys have plenty of opportunities for higher education yet refuse.
