Would you please stop using useless unrelated examples of the such in trying to debate a subject at hand. Reagan had the nation's security being held hostage by means of an illegal strike. There are` reasons why the Taft-Hartley law was inacted.You know full well of that.

Strapped and trapped? I'm one of those guys that have mortgages and 3 kids too. I also shoulder the entire burden of guaranteeing several million dollars of borrowed capital. Yet I'm willing to put it all on the line. I should have the right to hire anybody I want or deny anyone I want. It is not anyone's "right" that they hold my life's work hostage.


Workers be protected from what? There are laws that say that you cannot not pay someone for labor rendered . Is that what you are`referring to? That is their protection.

I am glad that you do realize the "honest days pay" analogy. Seeing that it in fact does work both ways, is all that needs to be applied.

Justice does not take a back seat to passengers wanting to board a plane.
Reagan desired the weakening of unions. Do you deny that? Also, I have personally worked with a group of employees made sick by a company that subverted OSHA and allowed too high Toulene levels to exist in a plant. Bottom line: the company knew that the men and women working there had morgages to pay, kids to feed. I watched more than one man's life destroyed mentally and physically; ground up by interests and money bigger than they could imagine. For every "Erin Brockovitch" tale, there's a hundred where workers get screwed and are compensated with nothing but pain.
