Right wing thugs get all bent out of shape when a bus driver earns a salary that can support a family in the one of the USA's most expensive cities.
But watch them cry and moan if anybody dares suggest that the tax rates on the ultra rich get raised a few basis points to help pay down the deficit.
They worship corporations and the rich, and hate working class Americans. You see this over and over in their rhetoric.
oh please, if you want to pay down the deficit, then you need to make real cuts in the budget, like 2.9 trillion worth. a couple of billion extra coming from the rich is not going to pay down the deficit like cutting the budget would.
I just love it when a bunch of grown ups cry and moan about what a working person makes while thieves like the Koch Bros wallow in inherited un-WORKED for moolah and screw the very people that defend them!
Not only that, but when the government gives away corporate SUBSIDIES, these Joe-the-plumber-types think that kind of re-distribution of wealth is just okey dokey!
WoW! Who da thugs again????
Would you say that 49K is reasonable pay for a low skilled PART TIME job?
Especially private insurance companies. If any of those disabled children requires an expensive operation his insurance companies will have lawyers pouring over his application looking for any reason, no matter how trivial, to deny the claim.
Most disabled children are on Medicaide. What else have you got?
You right wingers with your anti union rhetoric make me think about how one of the things Hitler did was ban all labor unions so he could control the labor force to his whims. Which is what the corporations and business industries would love to have-control over the labor force without having anyone to stand up for tem. All of you anti union spouters are in effect working for the corporations and business industries- you are paving the way for them to have the masses attack the unions for them so they can get rid of all of the benefits, pay scales and other working perks that cost them money. The industries would loveto go back to pre union conditions-we are already seeing so many of these conditions disappearing and all you right wingers just spout your anti union rhetoric. Just wait til your grandchildren are working 60 to 80 hour work weeks with no benefits, they can thank you guys for making the union busting corporations job that much easier.
Please tell us:
Which corporation are these bus drivers working for?

There you go - drag out the Hitler reference. Proof positive that you have no articulate argument.
Without the union, How many would be willing to do the same job for $40,000 a year + the bennies? Or even $30,000, it is part time.
It would not be very hard to save some cities a hell of a lot on their budgets
Considering most of those jobs are low skill, paper pushing, take 8 hours to perform 4 hours of work, with set-in-stone breaks, benefits and 9-5 hours. Yup, I'd take it.

Depends on where and what the job is. Do you know what rents are in California these days?
Do you think the CEO of Wells Fargo pulling down $17.6 million is justified?
How about Lloyd Blankfein overseer of Goldman Sachs, the banking giant with their Wall Street shenanigans, taking home $14.1 million?
Here's a little tidbit on Lloydie:
Blankfein testified before Congress in April 2010 at a hearing of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. He said that Goldman Sachs had no moral or legal obligation to inform its clients it was betting against the products which they were buying from Goldman Sachs because it was not acting in a fiduciary role. - wikipedia

Only a liberal thinks that any wealth created that does not come from a daily job is "unearned". If you discover oil or gold on your land you are not entitled to sell it for a profit I guess.
