    Biden and the democrats doing such good things like preventing the working class from striking. Take the blinders off.

      The rail road workers got everything they wanted and more. The admin followed up even if the media fell off. They also just raised the construction workers minimum wages on federal contracts.

      Did you ask him to take the blinders off because you wanted a second set for yourself?

        Wowee you are really drinking that kool-aid aren’t you?

        The rail road workers got everything they wanted and more.

        Sick leave? You know that crucial safety issue of staying home when you can’t perform your job. How about the skeleton crews the rail companies run giving inspectors a total of 2 minutes per car to do mandatory inspections? All these issues labor was raising before the national disaster of East Palestine.

        The admin followed up even if the media fell off.

        Do you even know what you are championing in this statement? “CSX was the first to grant paid sick days to several of its unions and has now granted sick days to 61% of its 17,089 unionized employees.” OH boy 10k people got 4 days of sick leave, what a joke. That’s bread crumbs. It’s nothing to celebrate, that’s what the rail companies want to diffuse the public pressure.

      I’ll take the good with the bad. Better than literal criminals and conmen. Some good shit was done. C’est la vie.

        While I was happy to see someone point out the strike prevention, I do appreciate your response. It’s a nice reminder to appreciate what we can.

      labor is a fight and that’s all there is to it… people have to fight before anyone will stick their necks out… my grandpa was a coal miner “back in the day”, and he had a great job because they went on strike when it was needed… and they took care of scabs… they didn’t fuck around…
