    GC Pride618, there has been no contract to vote on yet. So get your facts straight. Negotiations are still ongoing and from what I know the union employees are not even asking for any increases, they just are willing to give anything back either. Market conditions are bad for the steel industry not because of union wages & benefits but because of ILLEGAL DUMPING of foreign steel. For those of you that are too stupid to understand this. This means they are selling their steel at BELOW market prices and in turn being subsidized by their government. So stick that up your greedy little %#$ Mr. Pride.

    On another note, I find it rather odd that the union supported Obama in both elections, and even though it was Obama that has strongly pushed for passage of the Trans Pacific-Partnership, the unions want to blame it on the Republicans for its passage in the House. Democrat or Republicans, they are all the same now. they don't care about you or I, they only care about lining their pockets.
