Ahh ... those Labor Union members with their pensions and their pensioners. It's like only members of Labor Unions grow old and need those bloated pensions... ordinary people who work in non-unionized companies, have to beg on the streets because their pensions were not good enough to keep them in house and home. However, I have yet to see a panhandler who's on a pension.
Yeah... cry a little for these workers, these poor babies who are not getting enough from the fat capitalist pigs who hire them and then, audacity of audacities.... will let the hired hands bully the capitalist pigs into closing shop as they no longer can meet the bullies' demands.
What a strange world we live in. Don't you dare think of the tens of thousands upon thousands of Canadians who are still umemployed and would be more than happy to get employment that would pay them.... perhaps even less than half of what Union members get. Think only of the poor, sweet, union members with their fat salaries who require even more fatter salaries.
What a bloody farce these Labor Unions of Canada happen to be !!! Instead of giving thanks that they were born under a lucky star to still have such great pay packets coming in on a steady basis, even in these wintery economic times, these yahoos are protesting for even more benefits and rights. Go figure !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Picket lines have gone up around the U.S. Steel Canada plant in Hamilton after 900 workers were locked out Sunday in a dispute over pensions.
About 400 workers and supporters gathered at the company's main gate on Wilcox Street to shout their disapproval at the company's demand for radical changes in their retirement system..............

Maybe the day will come when there will be an appetite for "Right to Work Laws" that have been passed in a number of U.S. states.
ReplyDeleteImagine how many non-union workers would show up at the U.S. steel gates if they had the right to work for the company without joining the union. Sure they would work for less. But maybe US Steel would have a little more interest in hiring Hamilton workers if their compensation package were not so out of line with workers in the US.
I think it's time for unions in this country to wake up.
