For those of you too young to remember President Reagan's administration, the Union of Postal Workers was making noises about striking. But the Air Traffic Controller's union, in violation of Federal Law, went on strike. (Too bad it was the Postal Workers.) Reagan told them to go back to work immediately or they were fired. You never heard so much crying and whining from the Democrats, but the Controllers (Patco, I think) were fired. They lost a really great job with great benefits, simply because they have the right to be stupid.

Trout: Liberal-Center? Maybe center of the left. But much more likely far left.

Wait a few days to tall up all of the negative comments you get from the question, then we will have an answer!

Wow -
Are the lefties supposed to get aproval from you before asking a question I mean maybe you would like to demand some paper from people before they type ?
For the record not an air traffic controller not a leftie -
Liberal is supposed to be in the center not to the left
Conservative is supposed to be just a little right of center
But if your are really far right then perspective as to the rest becomes scewed
I think you may have gone so ar right that you are at the extreme end of it and on the border of the extreme left
On the political spectrum they meet if carried too far
It is like a globe in that fashion - you know where you hit the North pole and all points from there are south ?

OMG.. That really brings back memories as does the threatened postal strike.
I don't recognize any fired ones here, but don't doubt your ability.

I was able to keep my job, until I accidentally flew some planes into skyscrapers, then they retired me with a hush fund pension.
Thanks for asking...
