What Goes Around, Comes Around

Sheriff's deputies in Marion County, Ind., said in September that passenger Kevin Small's right arm was severed in a one-car collision as he and a buddy were taking a nightclub dancer home after her shift. According to deputies, when Small and the driver asked the dancer for sex, she refused and started fighting with the men, causing driver Richard Everhart to lose control of the car and crash, taking Small's arm off. (The dancer was uninjured; Small's hand was recovered but not the rest of his arm.) [Indianapolis Star, 9-12-02]

Teamsters Local 988 opened its brand-new meeting hall in Houston in August, to unfavorable reviews by representatives of locals representing construction workers, plumbers, electricians and other trades. According to a Houston Chronicle report, the Teamsters had the hall built with nonunion labor because union work was too expensive. [Houston Chronicle, 8-10-02]

Unions are a viable and important part of our society. As the Teamsters have shown us, they are the only ones who should save money.

Yeah, unions do serve a very important function. If you need somebody whacked, they're who you turn to.

I guess saying "hands off" would be inappropriate.
