WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?
California and specifically San Francisco are doing something fiscally responsible... The new San Francisco - Oakland Bay Bridge is being made in China...
Every time I think it's safe to watch Fox & Friends and drink my coffee at the same time, I see something like this, which usually ends up with me having to clean up a mess... It appears as in this time of 9.1% unemployment here, it is a half a billion (the last time I checked, that's 500 million) dollars cheaper to have the bridge built in China and shipped here for assembly... Why you might ask? It all boils down to the Davis Bacon Act, which is explained here...
This is simply one more reason government is the problem, not the solution... I will not apologise in advance of this next statement... Unions are destroying America... They had a purpose once upon a time, but that time has come and gone... I live in Florida which is a right to work state and the sooner all 57 (according to Obama) states follow suite, the better...
NOT RACIST... NOT VIOLENT... JUST NO LONGER SILENT...
I'll second that ...
ReplyDeleteI sure hope the unions and their members related to the steel, concrete, electrical and numerous other industries involved in bridge building are pleased with their support of democrats?
ReplyDeleteUnions have become what they originally fought against. Unions are bullies today.
