[QUOTE="brett636, post: 409212, member: 249"] You apparently have trouble distinguishing between the hand that feeds you, and the pair of hands that play you like a puppet on a string. You see, UPS, not the teamsters, is the one that gives you a paycheck and gives you those great benefits you enjoy. The teamsters simply negotiate a contract, and dissappear back to their headquarters for another 5 years. Some could argue that Obama's economic plans will hurt this country rather than help it, and I happen to agree. If UPS loses business then I am less likely to be able to move up into a better paying job(currently combo air driver aspiring to go feeder), and could threaten the very job I have. Lets not forget the fact that I will end up paying more money in taxes to an even more powerful federal government should he become President. I have seen no indication from McCain that he will destroy unions in this country, but Obama has said multiple times that he will raise taxes, take over healthcare, and weaken our military. My conscience will not allow me to vote for anybody who supports this kind of agenda. [/QUOTE]
