If The Attack On Unions Continue To Spread Look For Other Unions To Strike Too Including Teamsters Freight Will Stop

I don't see private unions striking just support public unions. This legislation affecting public collective bargaining rights does not affect private collective bargaining rights.

So anyways it would only take about 3 days of shutodwn for the country to go up in flames and then NO ONE has a job or benefits every again. So fuck you and your good buddy OP do it I dare ya

EXACTLY.
Government employees who are payed with peoples' tax dollars should NOT be in a union.

The teachers get their salary, free health care and free pensions.

The union gets even more.

The people can't afford to pay for their OWN health care and retirrement LET ALONE the health care and retirement along with the salaries of these teachers.

You are such a dullard. AMAZING. :grnrolleyes:

PRIVATE Corporations PRODUCE the money that PAYS for GOVERNMENT UNION EMPLOYEES.


You are too stupid for words.

:dumbpeeps:

Federal labor laws are not immune from being gutted if it
gutting of public sector unions gathers momentum.

The problem in Wisconsin is not an attack on unions. Public employees should never have been allowed to unionize. It is a conflict of intrest for most of our elected officials. Unions are among the biggest contributors in any election, so most of our reps owe the unions for their support. The reps in return vote for pay raises for the unions almost every time. The taxpayers take it in the ass so politcians and unionized employees can keep up their lavish life style.
Everyone should be prepared to live off the supplies in their house for at least 3 months. If you don't have any stored supplies, you will be the one hurt by this ridiculous show of force by the unions.

They should teach unions 101 in high school.

Unions organize workers who are being fucked by the management of poorly run companies.

Many well run companies aren't union because they recognize how to properly manage the company and compensate their employees.

When a well run company gets sold to some greedy corporate raiders who decide to just steal everything that isn't bolted down and fuck the employees, the union organizers show up.

You think the unions fucked GM and Chrysler? Take the time to read about Cerberus Capital and their dealings with GM and Chrysler who went bankrupt and needed a govt. bailout.

If you can't do this and insist on continuing to regurgitate rush limbaugh and sean hannity, you are a willing fool.

Ford didn't go bankrpt or need a bailout and they deal with the same UAW as GM and Chrysler. The only thing missing from the Ford equation is Cerberus Capital.

Isn't the angry mob thing great? Every morning we get to wake up to a new barrage of threats from people who ought to be happy they have a job in the first place. I'm sure the 180000plus unemployed in wisconsin would love to take their job. I wish more people who talk about the bargaining rights that are being taken off the table. It isn't that bad. The bargaining rights are being limited not removed. And who will speak up for the right to NOT have to pay in if you don't want to? They must be pretty dang scared that too many people will opt out. A person should not be forced to pay dues or fees to a union if they don't want to. As it stands in the state now, the state automatically takes those dues from the paycheck. In the bill, that would be made voluntary. But, if you keep the media repeating the same thing, the sheep will listen. The democratic party is riding on the backs of the middleclass they claim to coddle. As much so as the right causes us to be cornholed by wall street.

So I was talking to a good friend that is president of a local union where I live. They are planning rallies around the country to support the Wisconsin workers. Unions around the country are getting ready to mobilize and are planning to strike if this trend continues around the U.S.

So this union president was telling me that there has been discussions with the Teamsters and that they may strike if it comes down to it because they see this legislation as all out assault on unions. The Teamsters of course control not all but a good part of the truckers around the country.

So could freight stop or slow down? Maybe. It could definitely slow down food and other goods around the country. Be interesting to see what happens. What say you?

I'm not sure about long haul drivers, but UPS is non union for the most part and so is FedEx.

I think the Teamsters are not as powerful as they once were, but I'm out of touch on that one.

Bargain with who? Joe tax payer gets no say in the matter.
The couple working their ass off that have no kids and are
paying forrest the shitty schools get no say. That's the
entire problem government and unions are fighting each other
for the average tax layers money.

.

The president of the local told me these things so they are not my opinion only what they have been told or what they think might happen.

Since I am not a Teamster I have no idea if this will or could happen or not.

The union did offer concessions to the governor everything he asked except the collective bargaining rights. With all the other states following so quickly you have to believe it is a strategy from a higher level.

It is NOT about freaking money! As mentioned above, the
union offered monetary concessions, Walker flat out
refuses to allow further collective bargaining, THAT is what
the issue is about.

The Teamsters are pieces of shit and don't give a shit about the drivers. Plenty of drivers out of work right now to take their place...believe me. And others will not risk a valuable job backing them up. I have never seen a Union do anything good for it's workers in my lifetime.
