I think at first it was disbelief ? you've got to be kidding. But now that they've seen some of the legislative support we've put together, they see that the union is willing to put up some money, that the company is, that the state stepped right up ? they think there's a ray of hope. |
I'm a Vermonter. I live in Vermont. We have to take care of our own people. We have to figure out how to do this ourselves. We have these plundering Visigoths that come up to our state and they don't care. They divide and conquer and take the cream. |
It's not over. It's not over at all. |
They can either take a hit now, which they will with any other lousy job, or take a hit with a chance it will pay off. |

We talked to our members about it and they said, 'This sounds crazy,' but the more work we do, it looks like we can pull it off. |
