Hell YES! Unions!

Sounds good to me.

Great. Lets tax corporations for any welfare received by employees. That should fix the problem and help deficits.

Yes, go after the poor rather than the greedy rich. How elitist of you.

If WalMart fired all the food stamp recipients, think of all the savings to government.

The Waltons have more than enough to pay them so they aren't on food stamps. And they are working harder than the waltons.

It’s funny how the rich elitists are these perfect do nothing wrong people to you. Don’t blame the car execs that are very highly paid to run the company, blame the workers. Don’t go after the owner making billions off corporate welfare, go after the poor barely getting by. Your elitist worship is pathetic.

When you get a chance, find out how many billions WalMart pays in wages and compare it to their profit.

(WSJ) — Detroit was once America’s fourth largest city, though today large sections of its inner core are abandoned to the elements, and monuments like Michigan Central Station are returning to dust. Another emblem of civic decline is a plan to desert nearly half of Detroit’s public schools so that it can afford to fulfill its teachers union contract.
The school district is facing a $327 million deficit and has already closed 59 schools over the last two years to avoid paying maintenance, utility and operating costs. Under a worst-case scenario released this week by Robert Bobb, an emergency financial manager appointed by the state to resolve the Detroit education fisc, the district will close another 70 of its remaining 142 schools to save $31.3 million through 2013.
“Additional savings of approximately $12.4 million can be achieved from school closures if the District simply abandons the closed buildings,” the proposal explains, purging costs like boarding up buildings, storage and security patrols.
Steven Wasko, a spokesman for Mr. Bobb, said that urban property sales have been difficult, in part because until recently the state board of education banned transactions with “competing educational institutions” like charter schools. Once buildings are deserted, even if the doors and windows are welded shut with protective metal covers, scavengers break in and dismantle them for copper wire, pipes and so on.
Under the emergency plan, consolidated high-school class sizes would increase to 62 by 2014, “consistent with what students would expect in large university settings.” Yet under the terms of the Detroit Federation of Teachers contract, the district must pay bonuses for class enrollment over 35, thus imposing some $11.1 million in new costs through 2014.
Note that this dispensation carries about the same price tag as the school abandonment windfall: In other words, Detroit may end up destroying serviceable capital assets so it can pay its public workers more over the short term.

OMG, I was telling someone the other day people who work for Grocery Stores and Fast Food need to organize. Auto workers did it and those auto companies had to pay profit sharing, fair wages, healthcare and even pensions. Now I'm not asking McD to give pensions or even 401K matching but they could pay better or give profit sharing when they make a profit. Sick days, vacation days, maternaty leave. It would be great if MCD and Walmart jobs turned out to be good paying jobs for blue collar workers. That would be a dream.

But, this is another example of why us voters are fucking idiots for voting Republican. We allowed Bush and Trump to pack the courts with right wing nut jobs.

The Trump Labor Board Is Making It Harder For Fast-Food Workers To Unionize | HuffPost

And what have we seen over the past few decades? We've seen a court that favors corporations over We the People every time.

The National Labor Relations Board is releasing a long-awaited rule that will make it harder for workers in fast food and other industries to bargain collectively, delivering another win for employers and a setback to worker groups.

The regulation will limit the scenarios under which corporations are considered “joint employers” alongside other companies they have a relationship with. For example, McDonald’s would likely not qualify as a joint employer with its franchisees, making it tougher for workers at different franchised restaurants to join together as employees of McDonald’s.

The new rule reverses a determination made five years ago, when the board had a majority of Democrats and tended to rule in favor of workers.

The previous, looser definition of joint employment had infuriated the fast-food industry because it put companies like McDonald’s and Burger King potentially on the hook for labor violations in franchised restaurants. It also opened the door to workers across entire brands coming together to improve their working conditions and possibly unionize.


See folks, Republicans are anti worker. This is just one way they've held wages down. And they've been attacking unions hard since 2000. Just watch all the anti union Republicans that will chime in next.

No fucking way I’d cede my life’s vision, and effort to someone I freely employed to perpetuate my directives. If you’re so clever ... Pony up your own cash to get your start up turning profits....

Well if your employees organized because you weren’t sharing the profits, they’d strike and cost you money.

Why should employers, like WalMart, share their profits?

Because their employees are smart enough to organize and force them. If not, they shouldn't. They should keep wages as low as they can. That's what corporations do. We get it.

Companies only paid American workers as well as they did back when America was great because unions forced them to. Even non union companies had to raise salaries to compete with union shops. Or they paid better for fear their employees would unionize.

And corporations have been pretty successful at breaking unions. They threaten the people that they will move. So most of the people who want to unionize don't because they don't want to lose their shitty paying jobs. Something's better than nothing. And this my friend is just one way the rich have assaulted the middle class.

How about the illegal employers? How much have they stolen from American workers?

Imagine how prosperous we'd be if we outlawed profit, eh comrade?

Imagine if we had good capitalism with no corporate welfare. We’d hit that 3% that trump policy can’t.

If you think food stamps are corporate welfare, you're a bigger idiot than I thought.

Well if your employees organized because you weren’t sharing the profits, they’d strike and cost you money.

Why should employers, like WalMart, share their profits?

Because their employees are smart enough to organize and force them. If not, they shouldn't. They should keep wages as low as they can. That's what corporations do. We get it.

Companies only paid American workers as well as they did back when America was great because unions forced them to. Even non union companies had to raise salaries to compete with union shops. Or they paid better for fear their employees would unionize.

And corporations have been pretty successful at breaking unions. They threaten the people that they will move. So most of the people who want to unionize don't because they don't want to lose their shitty paying jobs. Something's better than nothing. And this my friend is just one way the rich have assaulted the middle class.

How about the illegal employers? How much have they stolen from American workers?

I agree, we need to boot illegal aliens.

Ignore the rich making a fortune on the labor, blame the poor. Your elitist worship is sickening.

Ignore the rich making a fortune on the labor,

How much is labor paid? How much do the rich make?
Should the rich hire labor in order to lose money?
Why do you feel I'm ignoring simple economics?

Your elitist worship is sickening.

Your economically ignorant whining is comical.

How much is too much? According to the rich we made too much in 1970 and they’ve been finding ways to make us poorer and them richer.
