    They were always a fixture on the roads for
    as long as we can remember - "Yellow" delivery
    trucks. Not braggarts, just THERE.

    Well, they're DONE. Probably SOME bad management
    but mostly because the Union made impossible demands
    and killed the proverbial golden goose.

    Unions demanding money that's just not there have
    become a big PROBLEM recently - and not just in
    the USA ... check into the UK and France.

    The Covid debacle created BIG HURT worldwide.
    Then came inflation and rate hikes.

    Of course the UNIONS still want MORE MONEY, always.

    Well, IT AIN'T THERE ANYMORE. All you're doing is
    shrinking your pot of gold by ruining companies
    and institutions full of gainfully-employed, dues-
    paying, employees. The rest CAN'T be intimidated
    because THEY are running on empty too.

    Of course the far-leftists behind the unions
    think this is a GREAT thing ... so, union
    gangsters, be careful about who you imagine to
    be your "friends". Your slice of the pie could
    get REALLY small, quick, once they don't need
    you anymore ........

    You think unions WANT to see their company go bankrupt and their
    members' livelihood end? They regularly make all kinds of sacrifices to
    keep their company in the black even if the right is quick to blame them
    first whenever a company goes belly up.

    The whole MAGA imagery is based on remembrances of an America that existed at a time when
    Unions were strong. Unionization and worker demands for better pay are what created that
    vast middle class the right is now gutting.

    Inflation is already at Fed target.

    It is below the long term historical average.

    Unemployment remains low at under 4%.

    Fed cuts have not pushed us into a recession.

    Interest rates remain in historical low range.

    The housing market is hot.

    Manufacturing is hot.

    The whole Prop 13 tax revolt in California
    was because of all the taxes Reagan signed into
    law.

    Then he campaigned as an anti-tax candidate
    and Republicans believed him.

    Conservatives are sooooo gullible.

    And eight years later the national debt had tripled from just under a trillion to almost

    much in just eight.
