A lot of confusion and disappointment when it comes to economics! Mfg., has left the US claiming strangling tax rates and need for lower wages. Unions once needed became too greedy and shrunk when job's left. Taxpayers here locally on more then one occasion were asked to increase funding for schools and the classroom only to learn later the million(s) went to the Union instead. Constant repeating of the D. Party talking point referencing the evil rich and specifically the 1%....heck that line is used so often it is the one and only answer as to how anything and everything can be paid for...tax the 1%, just ask Bernie.  Ironically there are more in the 1% who are Democrats..assume they are ok with it. And another oddity I find interesting...under the umbrella of Capitalism where Unions are present and labor and business are trying to work together....instead of collaboration union leaders must sell "flaws" or they would be unemployed as in not needed. A lot of distortion!
