sweat your ears off for peanuts? "But labor unions are.....based on the belief that all men possess the same capabilities & should therefore receive the same wages." Pardon me....i was bumbling along under the impression that unions were created for the purpose of bargaining with the employer, where a single individual would have no chance at all. Unions have probably made as many demands for better working conditions & more human treatment than they have for increases in wages. "If a desired wage isn't paid, the worker has the alternative of getting a different employer or of going to work for himself." Oh boy! Save me a drag on that reefer before you throw it away, will ya? I can just picture Lynn strolling into the bank & saying to the loan mgr: "Hey Bub, lend me $5000 or so for me to start a business with. Nobody is paying right money in Detroit for my occupation, & i haven't got the fare out to Frisco, where they do pay good." "Except for the thirties, most of the time in our nation's history there has been a shortage of labor." I refuse to believe this without facts & figures to back it up. "The entire idea of limiting production...belongs in a Coblentz satire..." Ever hear of supply & demand, Lynn? "Thus, with a potential capacity to absorb 60 million cars per year, the best the automotive industry has done is around 7 million per year." Aha! Now we're getting somewhere. Your figure of 60 million.yr is cockeyed, but even 30 to 7 is a sizeable discrepancy, i'll admit. "That's underproduction!" A brilliant deduction! &--ah--whose fault did you say it was? Have the labor & liberal leaders been running things? "It is in a continuation of that policy (individual determination) that we must continue to progress." I assume "individual determination" means 19
