Right now the above post looks about -2 despite being absolutely correct.
Downvoting informed people is the worst way to express disagreement. It contributes nothing, and makes your side look bad.
- bsder 12y agoIt deserves the downvotes because it ignores reality. Many of the steelworkers unions in the early 80's went out of their way to try to get people retired so that the younger people would still have jobs. They also worked very hard to get people transferred to other sites to reach the point where they could retire even if it meant sacrificing some salary. Or, for something more recent, many of the unions involved with Hostess took several rounds of cuts before finally standing up and taking a hard line that eventually led to the bankruptcy. And, it looks like Hostess is going to be better off because of it. The downvotes are well warranted because he spewed propaganda instead of citing real facts.
