When Google starts using drones to deliver packages will those be unionized or non-union drones?

Here in the south, we'll call them "target clays".

Don't think for one minute there won't be a redneck with a shotgun shooting at those damned things.

Global warming supporters believe that a few hundred million tons of CO2 has more control over our climate than a million mile in diameter, unshielded thermo-nuclear fusion reactor at the middle of the solar system.

It's Amazon that proposed the drones, but it will never happen and in my educational estimation it was just ploy commercial to boost holiday sales as it came out a few days before Black Friday.

And yes this thread was a half hearted bouncy to take a jab at the non-unionized shippers.  Which for some reason the OP doesn't show up below in the Topic summary but it is apparent by the "treating workers fairly" quote at the end of his rant.

Which as stated UPS is unionized and Fed-Ex isn't.

yo dumbasses, the best way to do this is order the stuff, and just start your project when it gets there. It's not like you people have jobs or anything
