Trump and Union Busting

[rickyb]

But I'm confused .
Isn't obama letting in the under educated in droves to support cheap labor ?

i would imagine thats the point of letting in illegal immigrants is to keep wages low, but i have no idea.

I want to know how one busts a union? Give people a choice?

Pass laws that take away collective bargaining rights. It's already happened all across the country, and if Republicans have their way it's only going to expand.

You destroy the NLRB if you really want to destroy unions. Without that, unions don't have a good grievances procedure

For public unions. Yes and I agree with it.

Police and firefighters don't deserve collective bargaining rights

The problem
Is it gets abused big time. Why? Because all they have to do is raise taxes.

I know a lady that lived in Florida. The firefighters made something like 90k a year and when they actually went in and figured out how many calls they got and how much they actually worked. It was something like an average of 10 hours a week.

I know prison guards that call in sick for shift 1 because they know they are shorthanded for shift 2 and they need people. So not only do they get sick pay for the day they get overtime or double time pay for the rest of the day. A $200 day just turned into a $450 day for taxpayers.

You don't?

Congress doesn't either.

They have asked the FBI to investigate the fact that Hillary lied to Congress.

Which she did according to the director of the FBI.

They should all look in the mirror. Whenever ANY of our Senators or Congressman speak they are more than likely not speaking the truth.

Firefighters also get and die from cancer at a higher rate than others because of the toxins they are exposed to. Union fought and won that those can be deemed line of duty so that their families can be taken care after they die.
Do you think the government is going to lower taxes if the public sector workers don't make the money?

They should just be grateful they have a job at all.
They are public SERVANTS.
Their job is to serve me, the taxpayer.
They work for me.....
yawn.

What do you think her home insurance bill would be if she didn't have that fire department just sitting around?

I have no problem with them making a
Decent wage. They deserve it. It's the wide spread abuse and crazy over the top benefits that have to stop.

My mother gets a 3% pension raise every year. She makes more in retirement than she ever did as a teacher because the system is messed up.

No CEO's in puplic sector dude.

It's not that they were sitting around its that they were getting paid big city wages in a sleepy little town.

Someone negotiates those contracts same as we do. Can't hate on them getting good contracts if we want good ones too.

the top 10% of americans have 90% of the wealth. every one else has 10% to fight over.

get back to me when you figure out how much the 0.1% earn. thats whats really messed

Really what CEO make at most places is a drop in the bucket compared to the every day workforce. Dropping ups CEO pay isn't gonna do squat as much people like to act like it would.


Drop the workers wages $5 an hour and suddenly you have huge savings.

 

[Turdferguson]

private sector, dude

That's not what we were talking about dude.
