Employees at Chrysler’s Kenosha Engine Plant are upset because Chrysler is closing the plant and moving operations to Mexico. No one likes to see jobs lost – especially when the jobs are outsourced. But…

Many years ago, unions brought about some important changes in labor that protected laborers from abusive treatment by employers. However, I firmly believe (and so does my democrat husband) that labor unions are now redundant and detrimental to American business. American manufacturers can no longer afford American workers – especially unionized workers – so they are taking their plants outside the country to places with cheap labor. The thing is, what’s cheap to us can be wealth to the workers hired in other countries.

I can’t help but wonder how long it will be before the unions realize they have bitten the hands that feed them one too many times.
