In defense of Wes Stucky, his job is to promote Ardmore and to ensure its continued prosperity. For 30 years the tire plant in Ardmore has been a good citizen to Ardmore and the surrounding areas. This is what Wes Stucky is talking about. As the employer-employee relationship stands today that will continue. Yes, it is possible, with the emphasis on possible.
Today there is a one to one relationship.
With the union in place, the employees are removed from that relationship. We all stand to lose. The members elect the officials, and members pay their dues. Their goal is to protect the interests of the community. If it works like a union and looks like a union, then it must be a union.
