Biden stabs rail workers in the back

[Harpy Eagle]

fuck those entitled little bitches I hope every fucking one of them gets fired .

I know right, how dare people want a whopping 10 sick days a year. They should be ashamed

 

[GMCGeneral]

some industries are not allowed to strike tommy....i was in one of them....and you sign a paper before you get hired agreeing to that....

Plus civil service first responders, transit, et al. are covered under a version of NY's Taylor Law or if Federal, the Hatch Act.

 

[my2¢]

From what I gathered the main sticking point is that railroads didn't give workers paid sick leave. Along with the House vote to prevent a rail strike, they also separately approved a measure to provide the workers 7 days of paid sick leave each year. Now it's up to the Senate.

All this over a measely 10 paid sick days? Good gawd most jobs provide that.

Society needs a realignment. More for the workers and less for the billionaires. Capitalism has to work for everyone.

Capitalism DOES work for everyone willing to work. It has raised more people out of poverty than any other system in history. And railway workers make very good salaries plus overtime.
Socialism and run-away unions ruined your country. During WWII unions struck in the UK and Australia.

âJoe Biden blew itâ: rail unions decry plan to impose deal through Congress

Workers could be prevented by congressional decree from striking over paid sick leave and quality-of-life issues

www.theguardian.com

This is a disgraceful action by a US president.Reminiscent of that awful Reagan.
America needs a decent leadership that supports the working man and woman.
If railways are so important then pay them.

Well we get what we supposedly voted for. A maniac hellbent on destroying our economy. Biden has never been pro-union, he is pro-Corporation and his own bank account. They didn’t call him the Senator from MBNA for nothing. Tax havens for banks, and jobs shipped over to China on his 40+ year watch while in the Senate. He’s a globalist pig who could care less about blue collar workers in the US. Why do idiots like you act surprised he would fuck them over?

Only kind that POS Biden knows. Where the hell have you been the past two years?

We had one. His name was Mr. Donald J. Trump.

He was instrumental in Delaware changing its banking laws to allow unlimited interest to attract all the major banks to relocate there way back in the eighties. Before that change, the interest rates being charged nowadays would called usuary.

So would he give them everything they are asking for without asking questions because that is always what should happen.

Being an ignorant one-legged British faggot, you do not know shit about our politics, nor do you have any standing to speak of it.

Worry about what is going on around you, in your own degenerate shithole country.

 

[SmokeALib]

Fuck those money grubbing assholes. This is one of the few good things Biden has EVER done.

Are you referring to the railroads - who recorded billions in profits last quarter? Or the workers - who have zero sick days and are on call 24/7 365?

Well maybe if the union workers werent raking us over the coals with how much they demand for pay, we could afford to hire more of them.

Biden has bragged that he is a friend of labor unions. I guess he was lying again.

Joe Biden can't do anything here but say stuff. Congress holds the power.
And they did give sick leave as part of this deal, it's up to the senate to approve it now.

House OKs rail labor agreement, sick leave measures - Roll Call

The House approved resolutions that would enact a rail labor agreement and provide an additional seven days of paid sick leave to workers.

Pay wasn't the issue. They got less than 5% per year. And they were ok with that. Raking over the coals?

Not in the agreement. It's a separate bill. That way, if the Senate votes it down, the democrats can save face - "See - we tried".

It certainly doesmt. People in full time jobs who cant house and feed their families. It needs recalibrating so that moree wealth stays with the workers.
If we carry on like this we will end up with blood on the streets. Nobody wants that.

Correct.
