RE: Boycott American businesses operating in Mexico
As a child of a Union Organizer (CIO/ Packing house industry) I have seen the futility of many boycotts in my life.
What often happens is what looks like a victory results in the Mechanization of many industries including agriculture ( grapes, tomatoes, cotton etc) resulting in a loss of jobs & benefits. Also the shut down of many industries or the breaking of unions, the packing house industry a perfect example. Many were shut and replaced by smaller more efficient operations paying far lower non union wages.
But be that as it is I still maintain that he vast majority of boycotts area failure or worst.
I really think we are basically on the same page Don as I see little benefit on jeopardizing peoples employment.
Perhaps the real battle is to go out to work for candidates who support our view points.
