Ok, I confess, Walker is following my orders. i told him to break the union. There I said it. now I must get in my rocket ship and get to sector 9 in alph centuri. If you adorn your tin foil hats you may join me and Tightwad.
I'm sure you'll still be delighted some day when you and/or your husband have to work for below minimum wage. Just keep on celebrating.
And why not leave aned take another job? I am not willing to support collective barganing as a tax payer, unions always unwilling to compromise ....and besides, why can't individuals negotiate themselves....come one
The governmnet has taken over where unions began a century ago in protecting all working people regardless of their affiliations from unfair labor proctices, unsafe working conditions. The unions may not have outlived their usefullness if they had not been so greedy as to break the backs of the taxpayers through the public employees union.
You have no idea what you're dealing with. If you think the people running this thing (the planet) are going to pay the hard working, responsible, good people above average wages so they can live high on the hog while only the poor, lazy, dumb losers have to work for $7.00 an hour with no benefits so you can look down your nose at your inferiors than you'll be in for a rude awakening.
They'll come for your standard of living when they're done with them. BET on it! But I expect civil unrest, riots and very possibly the start of WWIII before it get's that bad.
History repeats! they're using the same play book they've used for the last 100 years. Understand it. Be prepared. You think they have underground cities all over the world and internment camps because they like building things for no reason?
People have forgotten what the plight of the working man was before unions, or perhaps their cushy middle and upper middle class backgrounds have kept them isolated from the grim realities of every day working class life.
Some would have us return to the sixteen hour workdays and shameful safety conditions that were the norm before unions. I'm constantly amazed by how little people learn from history.
