So then, what do you think the local union workers out here would do when a large mainland corporation tried to show up with their own trucks and bulldozers with low rate labor from out of state?

I don’t expect you to understand. This is something you have to experience firsthand. Unless you’re born and raised here, or have lived here for a long time, you won’t get this.
