Well, sure - we can compete with the 3rd world if we don't mind living in caged-in slave pens, like the Apple iSlaves. That'll work out great for the corporations - cheap labor! - but not so great for the rest of us.
As long as it makes it easier for the corporations, I'm all for it, since the meaning of life is to make money. If the employees can't afford to feed themselves, who cares? The bottom line is the bottom line, after all.

Paying a union janitor $35-40+ dollars an hour plus full benefits is way out of line.
.
Yes... but paying him $3.5 to $4 an hour (which is where we're headed as a nation) isn't going to work, either.
Exactly. The current minimum wage in most places do not allow even a single person to live. $3.00-$4.00 and the people will be living in tent cities. Unacceptable. Work hard and contribute to society should=A decent life.
Union workers comprise such a small part of the workforce, its getting old and tired balming them for all the ills. If you have 2,982,264 janitors making no more than $15 and hour, please explain how those few union exceptions in union shops are keeping non union american products from being competative againts foreign items?
I wouldn't be looking at those few higher paid union workers as the blame, it's really all those stupid idiots who go around blaming the wrong people instead of focusing on the real reasons (american corporate management and american corportate mentality to put the money in executive operations and not the product they are selling) why american products and companies are so crappy.
