re: #573 ggt

The attacks on reproductive rights make me spitting mad.

This kind of crime makes me so sad I can’t even cry.

It is like the extreme right have been emboldened by the lack of any serious backlash as they drop one racist, sexist, anythingist after another. They truly believe in a version of America that is out of some depressing dystopian novel. The large corps are equally been inspired to attack unions.

Not sure if any of you have heard this, but in Seattle, WA, a large grain port was built to ship USA grain to China. The dock is under control of the local Maritime Association. They in turn have a contract with the local Longshore union to handle all loading and unloading of ships. Well the owners of this new grain port demanded 12 hour shifts with no overtime. Anyone that is or knows a Longshoreman will tell you that most of the accidents occur due to fatigue. Any further more, why does that grain corp not have to follow the existing contract?

Well they outsourced the work and now both the full west coast and east coast unions are about to strike over this. Just what our Country needs.

And people think if there were no unions the corps would still play nice… LOL
