"The owner of several Connecticut nursing homes is calling for a criminal probe after union workers staged a mass walkout earlier this month, allegedly vandalizing and sabotaging the health care facilities in the process. Among the allegations is that the workers, supposedly disgruntled over protracted labor talks, switched around the IDs of Alzheimer's patients"
Hope no one died because they got the wrong meds.
"Those employees are represented by a chapter of the Service Employees International Union"
Well there's a shocker, SEIU thugs behaving badly.
"In the formal complaint, company executives also point out similar incidents reportedly occurred in 2001 at several nursing homes involved in labor negotiations with the chapter, New England Heath Care Employees Union District 1199."
"Top Connecticut Democratic lawmakers including Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Gov. Dannel Malloy and Attorney General George Jepsen have throw their support behind the union in the protracted labor talks, with Malloy and Jepsen joining picket lines."
Liberal backers, another shock.
“By their outrageous, inhumane and unlawful actions, HealthBridge has given workers no other alternative,” chapter President David Pickus said after the vote. “This is yet another instance of the wealthy 1 percent waging war on the 99 percent of us who work for a living.”
More class warfare rhetoric, right from the playbook.
"The company also alleges several other incidents in the complaint, including that equipment such as stethoscopes and wheelchair lifts were hidden."
Petty and childish, no surprise from liberal unions. These people need to be fired and stripped of their licenses to provide healthcare.
I blame unions for the sad state of America as much as I blame politicians.
Agreed. All of them need to be tossed out on their butts, Democrat and Republican.
