Walker needs to understand American workers are not enemies

[Decus]

Unions have the potential to be very harmful to the economy. Case in point:

"For decades these "lords of the docks" have been paid like blue-collar royalty. Their current contract pays $26 to $41 an hour, with free healthcare for members. Some earn six figures with overtime. Even as a growing chorus of business groups clamor for a resolution to their months-long contract talks with the Pacific Maritime Assn., which represents shipping companies, the union sees little need to back down."

Small but powerful union is at center of port dispute - LA Times

"According to a Kurt Salmon analysis, congestion at West Coast ports could cost retailers as much as $7 billion this year. That congestion cost comes from a combination of the higher price of carrying goods and missed sales due to below optimal inventory levels"

West Coast ports Retail s 7 billion problem

""At stake right now is the continuing recovery of the U.S. economy," said Jonathan Gold, with the National Retail Federation, which estimates it could cost $2 billion a day if the slowdown grows into a full lockout or strike."The West Coast ports account for about 12.5% of the GDP for the United States.""

And who can forget this pile of shit that SCUMBAG Unions have forced us to pay for?

The people that are SUPPOSED to work for us

Federal workers earning double their private counterparts - USATODAY.com

All of it payed for with YOUR taxes

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

So says faux Indian and communist sympathizer?

Whatever.

Walker's statement was controversial and stupid.

Workers in America, government or private sector, are not the enemy.

To imply they are enemies demonstrates Walker is mixed up.

The comparison to ISIS was idiotic

Workers have a right to bargain collectively. Wanting to do so does not make you a terrorist

It was an insult to ISIS.

ISIS only fucks other people, not their own. Union scum will fuck anything and anybody at anytime

 

[Penrod]

Collective bargaining and terrorizing a business are two different things.

JS quoting corrupt warren. Priceless.

How many politicians in Washington can you name who aren't corrupt?
Anybody who takes money from special interests is basically taking a bribe. Just because Congress legalized their style of bribery, doesn't make it right.

Yeah, because sitting at the reception desk at the IRS is such a high skill job

bitch

How Americans Are Overtaxed to Overpay the Civil Service

Salaries and benefits—for identical jobs—are 30 percent to 40 percent higher in the federal government than in the private sector. Claims that this dramatic discrepancy in compensation is warranted because of government workers’ high skills are unjustified, as this study shows

 

[Political Junky]

Right to work = right to work for the lowest possible wages that employers are willing to pay.

 

[Missouri_Mike]

Right to work = right to work for the lowest possible wages that employers are willing to pay.

Union= Take home the same amount after the union takes their cut of your pay. Your work doesn't matter the union will decide who's relative gets the next promotion ahead of you.

 

[kaz]

Fakey Jakey needs to realize that all American workers are not lazy ass union scum

Those are your words, not mine.

The American worker is not the enemy of America.

Government union member = the American worker

Your typical ridiculous post

 

[kaz]

"So you believe Unions should be allowed to force people to join and pay dues just for getting a job with a company?" are merely Stupid's words, not mine.

I am saying American workers are not America's enemies, but Stupid is implying they are with his nonsense.

Walker never said any such thing, you are the one spewing nonsense

I can't name any who aren't corrupt. They go in as peasants and come out multimillionaires.

Hope all had a good lunch.

I love it when these reactionary fucks from the far right melt down on Walker's comments about unionists and jihadists, and the far right reactionary thugs go all wild.

This: "The only thing obvious is that you sit around hoping you can make shit up that "hits nerves" on USMB. You're a lair and have failed for 4 pages to provide a quote of what you claim Scott said."

Avory pretends not to know what a comparison, an implied relationship is? We all know what Walker said, and Avory can lie all s/he wants, but it is what it is. How stupid of him.

 

[chikenwing]

Avory is simply stupid. An implication avoids directness. That's why Walker made the comparison.

Anybody who thinks that Walker was not playing for cheap shots comparing union members to confronting jihadis does not thing well.

Stalling? Why OP is straight on. Avorysuds does not understand implied nonsense. Walker certainly did.

So you don't have a quote,got it!! just more deflection and insults,the ammunition used when ya got nothing.
You can twist words around,but in the end,if you cant provide a real quote,your just pissing on your own leg.Who know you may like that,you do it so often.

Government employee unions need to understand that taxpayers are not a bottomless money pit.
