These are people with jobs!

What kind of jobs do these union people have that allow them to leave work to protest? There was at least one doctor on the street passing out sick excuses but 60,000, I don't know. . .
That doctor probably gets a lot of his patients from the union. It's in his best interests to keep the union happy. I wonder if the state medical association is looking into this. The government should also investigate him for fraud.
The Working People's Party is involved in getting union advocates elected to city councils and state positions. They contributed to both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. They are behind the move to enlarge government and get more for the public employees. It is an all out assault on the American taxpayer. Our government is being taken over by enemies from within.
"Working people" in the above article is code for this party's members and supporters and paid astroturf.
They need more attention from the media.

There has been another round of public sector strikes here in the UK with Firefighters, local government workers and teachers (depending on which Union they belong to) amongst the 500,000 - 1,000,000 workers ( depending on who you ask) who decided not to attend work today. Their grievances...

With all the hate for unions I'm seeing around here, I thought it might be helpful to remind people what happens when they don't exist, or are very weak.Next month is the 100th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, which claimed the lives of 146 of the factory's 500 workers. The death toll...
