Said, “How can you defend [Detroit’s] collapse / support of unions…”
I don’t support unions, but I won’t stand for blaming the wrong group for the social problems of a large city.
This goes far, far past what the unions do. The car companies have been corporately irresponsible, especially GM. That’s why they have had to be rescued from bankruptcy.
The unions were a symptom of dysfunctional corporations that *caused* their workers to unionize. If the corporations had treated the workers fairly there would not have been a reason to unionize.
You blame the people for rising up against unfair labor practices, instead of blaming the unfair labor practices themselves. Does that make any sense?
Socialism has nothing to do with corporations that treat their workers as slaves. It looks to me and all the others reading this that you are the one with the problem sorting out what’s right and wrong. You are the one who has a twisted view of reality.
