there are no unions in the US. they're dead. only wall street is left

Why are some of these clowns so afraid of a tiny minority of American
workers??

they're trying to stamp out the last vestiges of american middle class
identity. bring back slavery...

So, are they a "tiny minority of American workers" or "the middle class
identity"? As in most arguments with no basis, progressives want it both
ways...

union members are part of the middle class

so are dock workers, milkmen, teachers, nurses, cops, etc

as amazing as it may seem, these classes are not exclusive

They really should be. No way a high school dropout at GM or city
slacker should make more than a teacher, doctor, nurse or cops for
example. But note how they are unionized and on the government payroll
for the ones unionized.

gee. countries which are unionized have a lower GINI coefficient and a
stronger middle class than we do.

and why does the right defend BILLION dollar salaries for wall street
but FIGHTS a few thousand for a firefighter?

answer: becuse the firefighter is middle class and the banker is rich


Perhaps the answer is to outsource it. Sounds good because then you can
get rid of the poor performers and normalize the wage/benefits..

ever take a class in logic??

Funny, that is how I made a living. So successful in fact I could
retire early. Now I work for myself.

hmmm....must have been a TV preacher and hoodwinked a bunch of
gullible morons
