This Strike Is Trump's Fault

[Hafar1014]

Union workers argue they haven't received raises since 2022 and are seeking a straight 5% wage increase for 2026 to keep up with inflation.

Inflation rate projected to hit 6% in the second quarter, top economic forecasters say​

Wake up. This is Trump's fault.

They just git the largest tax cut in history what thats not enough.

LIRR unions, MTA continue negotiations on day 3 of the strike

Five LIRR unions representing 3,500 workers remain on strike. The unions are meeting with the MTA Monday morning.

Why suddenly are these workers saying they can't afford to live on what they make? I thought Trump was going to make America more affordable for workers like this? Instead tariffs and Iran have raised the price of everything. Caused inflation. Republicans want to say Biden caused inflation but forget The first stimulus package under President Donald Trump was the CARES Act, a $2.2 trillion economic relief bill signed into law on March 27, 2020.

Geeze Bobo. Log off, take a walk in the woods, go see a movie ...

OhPleaseJustQuit

Workers have gone years without a new contract​

The unions and the MTA have been negotiating a new contract since 2023

So your link openly states that no deal was made under Biden, but it's all Trumps fault.

Go suck an egg.

I love it how you want to do that. You want to pin the highest inflation on Biden, even though it was Trump's fault inflation went that high, or not Biden's fault.

the average inflation rate of Trump to Covid. Is that what you want to compare? This Trump to Covid?

Maybe this trump hasn't gotten us to covid level bad yet but he's getting closer and closer by the day.

All we know is Biden left office inflation was 3% and coming down. Now it's 3.8 and climbing.

Trump said over and over he would bring prices down. He's done the opposite.

When Trump left office it was 1.6%

Your Vegetable Messiah ran it up to 9.1%, which is when your union thugs started complaining.

THREAD FAIL!

Aren’t the L.I.R.R. making close to $200,000 per year in a state where the median income is about $85,000?

OMG, remember you dumb sons of bitches blamed Obama for the PB oil spill? Yet you can't fathom how Trump's inflation has caused this?

Now you go off on a tangent.

You have nothing, you lose, good day sir.

Aren’t the L.I.R.R. making close to $200,000 per year in a state where the median income is about $85,000?

Well first off I think you are wrong

Long Island’s median household income varies heavily by county. Recent Census data sets the median household income at $143,144 for Nassau County and $126,863 for Suffolk County. Both figures are significantly higher than the national median of roughly $83,700.
Average per-capita incomes are $64,198 in Nassau and $57,164 in Suffolk.



On Long Island, a middle-class household income generally ranges from roughly $70,000 to over $200,000 annually as of 2025, driven by high housing and tax costs. While state-level data suggests a $56k–$168k range, local, high-cost-of-living estimates indicate a family of four often needs a household income closer to $200,000+ to feel securely middle-class.


Why don't you question when a CEO gives himself a million dollar raise? Why are you doing this to workers?

Why you ask?

On average, union workers make significantly more than their nonunion counterparts. According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, full-time union wage and salary workers typically earn around 15% to 20% more per week than nonunion employees in similar fields.
Because they aren't suckers like non union workers.

Most families only got $300 more because of that tax cut. You must be rich. How much did you get from the BBB?

The Trump's are constantly lying.

How is the Iran WAR going? It's not a war?

How is the economy doing? I mean for us who aren't millionaires? I know Hafar1014 and rich people are killing it.

How did your meeting with Ching Chong Ping go?

Are your assets in a blind trust yes or no?

Who's going to pay for the ballroom?

How much have you lowered drug costs?

You have a replacement for Obamacare coming out in 2 weeks?

Great point.

 

[sealybobo]

Let’s see some numbers.

Post the avg inflation rate for Trump 2.0 vs the 4 years of your Vegetable Messiah.

You won’t because it destroys your lies.

Look what Trumpanomics is causing. Domino affect of his policies. You guys suck at this.

A 30-year U.S. Treasury yield pushing over 5%. What does that mean to you???

signals that investors are demanding higher returns for locking up their money long-term, driven by concerns about persistent inflation, surging national debt, and Federal Reserve policy. It means borrowing costs for consumers, businesses, and the government will remain painfully expensive.

When this rate goes up, average 30-year fixed Mortgage Rates and auto loan rates follow suit, making it more expensive to buy a home or refinance.

The U.S. government must pay higher interest on newly issued debt to attract buyers, which exacerbates federal deficit and national debt challenges.

Remember Trump started a trade war with China and everyone else and he pissed off the world? They all stopped buying our 30 year treasury bonds to punish Trump. That's going to cost you. Trump is costing you in so many ways you have no idea. But you'll bend over and take it.

• Companies face higher expenses to issue corporate bonds, which can slow down business expansion, weigh on corporate earnings, and impact hiring.
• Pressure on Stock Valuations: When investors can earn a guaranteed, risk-free
  
  
  return from the U.S. government, they require higher risk premiums from other investments. This frequently causes capital to shift away from riskier assets like equities, resulting in downward pressure or volatility in the Stock Market.

Huh, when did Trump kick the governor of NY out?

The average salary for LIRR employees in 2023 was $127,588.

You guys will always do this. Blame the Democrat in the city.

I supposed blue collar government workers in red states aren't suffering from Trump's policies?

OR, they aren't in unions so they got nothing to say about. All they can do is quit or bend over and take it.

In NY labor has some power.

 

[sealybobo]

So your link openly states that no deal was made under Biden, but it's all Trumps fault.

Go suck an egg.

Did they go on strike under Biden? Then no deal needed to be made. A deal needs to be made now because of tariffs/iran/inflation.

Let's not forget Trump caused inflation that Biden had to deal with.

So this is Trump's second time causing a crisis in America. Is it too soon to say we told you so?

Didn't Trump pass the CARES Act?

Yes, the CARES Act contributed to post-pandemic inflation, though economists view it as one of several major factors rather than the sole cause. The $2.2 trillion relief package boosted consumer spending, but this interacted with several other compounding issues to drive up prices.

 

[Harry Dresden]

A lot

The unions, which represent locomotive engineers, machinists, signalmen and other train workers, have said more substantial raises were warranted to help workers keep up with inflation and rising living costs.

Who caused inflation and rising living costs dummy? Biden?

bobo every time a contract is ready to end one of the main claims of the union is they need a raise to keep up with things.....in some cases its true...others not as bad as they say...striking doesnt benefit anyone though,it hurts both sides...if it hurts the public they should not be able to strike...

I predicted you wouldn't compare the numbers. I was sright.
