DECLINE OF THE WORKER

My father was a pipefitter, he belonged to the union.  Unions have taken a bad rap, some have suggested they are no longer needed.  History suggests otherwise.  Conditions before unions were not good 100 years ago.  Many died from poor working enviroments.  Wages weren't very good either.  Some think that companies wouldn't revert back to previous times.  What would stop them?  My guest, Sally Musson, watched G.M. pull out of her hometown and shares her experiences.  We both feel our media has had an agenda to add to the decline, as well as the actions of the government.  Why?  The answer is obvious, profits.  Is this a one sided conversation?  No, unions need to make some changes too.  The whole purpose of this show was to get others to see past the propaganda and not believe what our national media tells us.
