[Creedmoor]

Be careful, you might end up joining us terrorists.

How much are Indiana Teachers Union Dues each year?

 

[Ingomike]

Maybe I am calloused but they don't owe you or your customers anything anyway.

Yes they do, and to anyone that has supported them for the 50 years of the Buy American, Buy Union…

I don't believe that most of America really cares.

That's what Bud Lite said...

Hunter?

Looks like GFGT and my speculation was wrong.

Fain is doubling down, name calling and socialist talking the same as he has been. The only thing he didn't say was "MAGA big three." That's probably next...

Hold on, gonna be a rough ride.

Better get a helmet.

At the expense of their own well being and their families?

How socialist of you!

This ^^^^^

I have 2 vehicles that have been waiting on parts for a month. I've also had to refuse work because of parts availability.

My parts supplier can't restock oem parts so it's only gonna get worse as their supply gets emptied

I’ve heard, life’s tough. Get a helmet.

 

[jamil]

Does that surprise you? Does it matter?

I mean. That was like a tautology.

UAW have what 850+ Million in the strike fund, It can go for awhile if needed.

 

[jamil]

Yes. Yes.

Meh. Life is tough. Get a helmet.

I mean. Who gives a **** about the working class people who were laid off without a strike fund to help feed their families.

Why is it called redistribution of wealth when a union does it and asking for a raise when individuals do?

It’s all in the mindset. Of you think you should be paid more because you feel like your value to your employer is worth more than you’re getting paid, you ask for a raise. But look how the union people in this thread have justified the money they want. “The companies have made recored profits.” We deserve a piece of that. Their mindset is about redistributing those profits to themselves.

That's part of it, but they also want back what they gave up in the lean times (ie. 2008). Was it fair to the workers to "redistribute" their wealth back to the companies back then? If yes, then it seems like turnabout would be fair play. I think that's what the Japanese (and Korean?) companies have done right. The workers do better when the company does better.

The company had made record profits, I deserve a piece of that..

Sounds about the same to my ears.

If they would not have given ip COLA I wonder how much of that 40% request they would already have? Although their waistlines look healthier without all that added sugar from farm program socialism er I mean subsidies
