What did our "union" mean during those road shows when they talked about this deal producing growth and more money for all...if we just approve this "time critical" deal?

My hope is that many will remember who lied to them and who didn't. I hope none of us will ever again suspend our own sense of logic for the passionate and emotional scare tactics and sales pitches of the union official of the moment. If we could just do that, our futures will all be brighter.
