Taking a job at a union airline that has a closed shop is well known before someone accepts employment.
 
But they certainly like the wages, benefits and protection a CBA has to offer, now dont they?
Looking at the threads at other airlines, I wouldn't count on that!

Im celebrating yet another union claim has been proven for what it is.
 
A monumental colossal lie.
Read. C'mon just read. I know the educational system in some States is subpar but you can overcome that. Read, absorb, soak in knowledge. Reading is the true key. Read.

It's exactly what you're doing, right down to your usual silly memes.

'Course, in your haste to tap dance on the graves of these people's careers, you've skipped over a ton of other factors, but maybe your next couple of pictures can cover those?

BTW, what about all the other businesses that just got torpedoed? The gas station nearby; they Union? The bar across the way? Isn't that one of those "small businesses" conservatives love to tout?

Can we expect one of your toxic posts to cover that as well, or are you content to just try and wind people up?

Not to mention the banks which I can tell she adores. How about the foreclosures. The loss of tax revenue for the city to support the infrastructure.

She has a very one dimensional mind.

"The pack mentality" The need to belong and fit in with some group you feel you want to associate with.

The primitive nature of people to have to be accepted.

The union destroyed all that.
 
Willingly.
 
Code:
Median weekly earnings of nonunion workers ($776) were 79 percent of
	earnings for workers who were union members ($980). (The comparisons
	of earnings in this release are on a broad level and do not control for
	many factors that can be important in explaining earnings differences.)
	(See table 2.)

Holy Crap. Obama is going to get to nominate a new Supreme Court Justice.
 
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, a tart-tongued champion of conservative interpretation of the Constitution, has died at a West Texas ranch resort, government officials said Saturday.
“While our opinions on the law and jurisprudence were frequently at odds, he was steadfast and true to his beliefs during his tenure,” the number-two Senate Democrat, Dick Durbin of Illinois, said in a statement. “My thoughts are with his family and loved ones at this time.

Here's an article from a source you should support. Bloomberg would not exactly be considered a bastian of liberal policies or thoughts.

READ please.
 
There is no shortage of statistics making Nafta look bad. Free traders' claims in the early '90s that Nafta would create hundreds of thousands of U.S. jobs, turn the slight deficit with Mexico into a $10 billion annual trade surplus, and eliminate illegal immigration proved wildly off the mark. Instead, America's deficit with Mexico passed $74 billion in 2007. The U.S. has also shed 3 million manufacturing jobs since the early '90s.
Whether these ugly stats have much to do with Nafta is far from clear. America's debt-fueled spending binge and low savings rate are mainly to blame for the current-account deficit. Many Americans lost jobs as textile, auto parts, and electronics production migrated to Mexico. But China's export takeoff has been a far bigger factor in job losses of the past five years. Investment in automation and information technology has led to massive reductions of factory workers everywhere, including China. The last time the Congressional Budget Office studied Nafta, in 2003, it concluded the impact of the treaty on U.S. gross domestic product was minuscule.

Reading comprehension is tough for you.

Carrier is shuddering their US operations and moving to mexico. With the blessings of the union.

I'm debating against a literal box of rocks here.

To the 16 current readers out there. Are you still actually reading this thread?

Rocks.
