Congrads, German unions win big transit strike

    The BBC last night carried the news:  The German Unions won!  And, the trains are running throughout Germany today.


     You know, I was asked to form an opinion on the Mexican unions as part of the inauguration of NAFTA in the early 1990s.  I went down there and thought there was much that had to be done, but I never dreamed that being union members, they would exert so little power and display so little guts!


      Well, I'm hoping that the union movement in the US will once again become a powerful institution to have input in the run of things in this country.  Please, learn from the German union leaders and their membership!
