Did we just declare a financial War on Iran?

which somehow makes you an expert? Hardly. You see thing in good vs evil. Made more obvious because you never state underlying reasons why AND have an obvious distaste for doing so.

History is chock full of adversarial unions only created by adversarial management. One of the greatest examples was Henry Ford who suddenly realized this mistake, fired his Pinkerton Guards, stopped blaming the unions, and suddenly had no more strikes are more profitable plants.

How did Japan that suffered country wide union riots in the 1950s and 60s suddenly end this strife? Eventually all Japanese management learned the concepts of W E Deming where bosses work for the employees. Since employees were now making decisions, no more unions problems AND more productive companies.

It is a common problem among extremist who only see things as 'good or evil'. "Unions are evil", says Spudcon. It works only when you have a conclusion and don't even bother to first learn the whys. Spudcon - you don't even know who Deming is and yet know you are right. How sorry is that? Sorry enough to meet the definition of political extremist.

You saw a confrontational union? With your attitude, I am surprised they did not beat you up? Meanwhile, Chrysler has had no strikes since Lee Iacocca replace adversarial Townsend and Richardo - except in one plant. A Chrysler plant in IN struck for eight hours once. Clearly greed must have been apparent. Why? Workers wanted more work. The company obliged. No more disgruntled union workers. But Spudcon knows this could not be. Evil must be lurking somewhere in that union.

We also know Iran is evil. After all, their reform movement died completely as soon as George Jr declared them as an axis of evil. That proves Iran always was evil. The world according to Spudcon. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men. Spudcon knows. But he does not even know who Deming is. No problem. Such facts are only details - get in the way of knowing.
