I'm not a big fan of unions, but that's not what did this. Looks like Fat Elvis and Mr. Flopnuts have brought some sense to the argument though.
I'm also totally shocked that so many people on here don't understand unemployment either. Quote:

Probably want to go ahead and get used to this happening. Downward pressure on american wages will continue until we're India.

I'm sure the teamsters side of the story is accurate...

It is but this whole thing is complicated and everyone is to blame. Teamsters did take major concessions 3 years ago and they lost thousands of jobs and yet they turned around and took more concessions this time. The other union isn't willing.
Here is a good story about it... http://management.fortune.cnn.com/20...kies-bankrupt/ |
