Unions will be the death of this industry in our area just like it was with Saginaw.

ULA is a taxpayer funded company. It is about spending our money. So who cares, its like all government programs.

John, you are terribly misinformed. Your president is negotiating a world-wide trade agreement that will force the government to buy from ANY company that gives a low price, no matter WHERE it is. France is now a socialist country. Our government is socialist. If the union goons and your president get their way, ULA will be gone the day after the treaty is signed (congress won't get to ratify it, your president will enforce it through executive order). We'll buy our rockets from Russia, Chine, and France. Your president is determined to make this country into a third world workers' paradise. Are you ready?
