Article is interesting for the part it leaves out. Unions essentially inflated the cost of labor so much that doing the work in another country and shipping it across an entire ocean before redistributing it to various points across the country was CHEAPER that manufacturing it closer to the central point of domestic delivery.<p>That is the point that always gets left out. Cause and effect is a very real thing.<p>EDIT: This was apparently controversial. Voted up quickly and voted all the way back down at the same speed.
