Agree. When did you ever see anybody turn down money or benefits
offered to them no matter what job they held.
Like you say the elected officials gave it to them because of the power
of unions to throw votes their way.
A family member, very young at the time, would not vote for Bush
in the 2000 election because he was told at a union meeting he would loose $15/hr if Bush got in.
Never lost a penny, made more money under Bush, had all the overtime he wanted.
So far he has been out of work for the last 9 months under the new administration.
Eleven years later and he is seeing the light.
