The American Media Should Not Be Trusted
reddogblitz replied to SCBills's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Always cracks me up when they don't just all say the same thing, they use the exact same words. -
Perhaps we should use the Kavanaugh hearing legal standard in this case? If you didn't do anything wrong, why not agree to an investigation? If you don't agree to an investigation then that means you probably did some thing wrong so we need to investigate. Still boggles my mind to this day that this was the argument United States Senators most with law degrees were making. Senator Dick Durbin especially comes to mind, but most if not all of the Democrat Senators used it.

It's the one thing they can both agree on. Keeping everyone else out. I think we need a strong third or fourth party too. Whenever both parties nominate crap candidates which is almost always, I vote for a third party candidate. My hope is that others will do the same and one day one will win enough to get matching funds and build some momentum. I also enforce term limits with my ballot. Results have not been good thus far.

I have ZERO sympathy for them too. I didn't have debts to pay off cuz I joined the Marines out of high school and went to college on the GI bill. You can still do that today.

What is the sales tax rate in Florida?

The reason the run game is now working is cuz we're actually handing the football off to RBs. Up until the last few weeks it's rot been that we couldn't run the Football; we just chose not to. Now we are choosing to and its working. Cook's gonna break some big ones if this keeps up.

What's with this condescending attitude? Seems every time someone disagrees with your opinion you have to say they are too dumb or something. You have your opinion, I have mine. Deal with it. For not being a childish keyboard warrior you sure do keyboard around here a lot. If they did go on strike my thinking is the US public will be mad at all of them. Big Bidness (railroads), Unions, Democrats, Republicans, President Biden. Opinions are like butt holes ... -

I see. You're for unions and the ability to strike for better compensation except when you aren't. Its OK for lowly Starbucks and factory workers but not people who are important and have real leverage. Put your big boy pants on and support the strikers if it comes to pass even if its inconvenient. If it really would cost $2,000,000,000.00 per day (not sure how accurate it is cuz I hear politicians tossing that number around), there would be tremendous pressure on the big bidness railroads to make concessions which is a good thing and kindof the point. -

Same goes for maternity/paternity leave. Once this thing got rolling in the 80s/90s every company I worked for had it or started doing it. Even the last company I worked for with 200 employees. Would love to see the statistics on that too if @ChiGoose has any. -

So now blue collar union workers striking to get a better contract is a "quixotic hope that it would magically get the workers what they want."? How long has this been true? You might be right about the economic impact of a strike. But the one that would lose the most money would be the railroads which is kind of the point. It just seems hypocritical to this guy on the internet that President Biden, a life long supporter of unions, is siding with big bidness to force not having a strike cuz its inconvenient and could hurt his reelection chances.
