Hope the admin will allow this. I think it is germane to this conversation.

Whether we like it or not, or even admit to it, this country is now engaged in class and race warfare. This is evident in all walks of life, in all politics.

This mood of class is becoming more and more evident in business as well. Each class does not envy, does not wish to help, does not aspire for the other classes...they just demean them, no matter whether factual or not. We have accepted rich versus poor as an ongoing, never ending struggle and it becomes the basis for labor negotiations now as it never did before.

I surely do not know the answer, but listen.....hear... all the words you hear anymore define you and I as in one class or another...one race or another. We are not fellow countrymen anymore, we are rich or poor, black or white, illegal or not. There is no way to have a "melting pot" when the ingredients that "melt" are engaged in a "War" !!!

It is apparent when all you hear in the news anymore is color, financial status, etc.

THIS IS GERMANE to this discussion and is not meant to be political but what my understanding is of what is happening and it is not specific to labor negotiations
