Subject: When will they learn???


One of the reasons I have a challenging time saying we
need unions-
because it's the people at the top of the union
organization who reap all the HUGE benefits - like this
guy who called all the longshoremen on strike -
After weeks or even months of the longshoremen on
strike, many won't be able to pay their bills, afford
food, let along healthcare.
YET
the Pres of the union has two homes one in NJ - a
7,000sqft home complete with 5 car garage and a Bently,
has another home in Florida, has/had yachts, and makes
$728,000 a year plus another $173,000.

Who then is actually benefiting the MOST by being in a
union? Who will hurt the most when they strike???

we all lose in this strike. i’ve read the cost to the economy is at least $5
billion a day plus the strike could reignite inflation

I read the same - and although I sympathize with desiring
more $ in a paycheck, they are kind of setting themselves
up for a long strike when they are demanding no
automation -which so many industries have already - from
Amazon to auto.

So, their strike will potentially hurt the entire country
and all of the people- not just themselves and their
families.
