Social Darwinism is the reality in labor. How else do expect employees to be in such an environment? What we have is a failure of our collective bargaining agreement in an environment that actually should bear better fruit BECAUSE animation is probably the single bright spot in Hollywood - animation and live action that uses animation heavily. TAG is weak, and for a long laundry list of sad reasons. We don't even have animation directors in our ranks. ?!?!?! That's just the facts. So Social Darwinism reigns.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-52105322291997845062010-01-19T18:09:43.928-08:002010-01-19T18:09:43.928-08:00Reading the voluminous comments of some of the emp...Reading the voluminous comments of some of the employment related posts below, I must say, I found it staggering to hear so many trade unionists speak like Social Darwinists.
