Take that, taxpayers!
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Dback, you're a great guy, but that's just bullshit right there. Non-union labor? :ohno: :ohno: :ohno: Non union labor is the reason it's not a $120M stadium.

But is it also the reason it started falling apart?

One of the major points of a union is to make sure workers aren't held accountable for doing crappy work. Another major point is to make sure they keep getting raises, etc., whether they do crappy work or not. I don't know why ANYBODY would believe union labor should lead to a superior product.

Unions can be guilty of those things but there are also union apprentice and training programs that work very hard at making sure that union members are well trained on the fundamentals through the latest tools and techniques. Open shop training varies by location but can be up to the individual and the contractor.
Being wrong about a topic is called post partisanism - kalm

MAQA - putting the Q into qrazy qanon qult qonspiracy theories since 2015.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

Thank you for your attention to this matter - UNI88
