Giving the employees greater control sounds right to me, and might even encourage them to give up some union demands (not that I begrudge them that at all! I've been pro-union all my life, despite some obvious abuses). <BR/><BR/>Something does have to be done, I'll admit, because the overall economic losses are potentially too great. There should be some serious strings attached though, I think. Let's start with dramatically increased CAFE standards and work our way to electric from there....Iowa Victory Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07220818462081082930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-52111831142211884642008-11-23T22:37:00.000-05:002008-11-23T22:37:00.000-05:00Hey all!Solar, Mom, you know what Jonathan Swift s...Hey all!<BR/><BR/>Solar, Mom, you know what Jonathan Swift said, right? "When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him." Usually, the smart ones stay as far away from government as possible…<BR/><BR/>Yooper, I think that was "O Brother, Where Art Thou" — great movie anyway. It was supposedly based on "Odyssey"? Lots to chew on there, for sure. BTW, I think Mom would appreciate your stained glass work, since <I>her</I> brother did that as a hobby. I'll have to send her a link to your site.Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-44605617841515175532008-11-23T17:30:00.000-05:002008-11-23T17:30:00.000-05:00"Brother How Art Thou"..."Brother How Art Thou"...yooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297259993402713368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12954391.post-87814662033762752752008-11-23T17:27:00.000-05:002008-11-23T17:27:00.000-05:00Hey Far, I'm with you guys!
