On the recordFebruary 24, 2004
reclaiming my time, that means if you live in O'Leary, Ohio, and you have worked in what we used to call in this country traditional manufacturing, not ``Mc manufacturing'' is, I guess, the fast-food restaurant category. I guess there will be two categories of manufacturing, traditional manufacturing and ``Mc'' manufacturing. It will be M-c, with the arches, manufacturing. This is not really funny. It is kind of depressing that they would think that this is what we are going to, in the new era, the new Bush era, the new 21st century, that this is what we are going to call manufacturing; that these workers in O'Leary, Ohio, who have been in traditional manufacturing making $12, $14, $16 an hour, with decent health benefits, with a decent retirement, that they will lose their jobs in manufacturing, they will get another job in manufacturing, working at McDonald's for $7 an hour with no benefits, with no health care and no retirement.
