63% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, millions live in poverty. 8 Democrats just voted to ensure it stays that way.

The $15/hr minimum wage is supported by 67% of the American people. 58 Senators just voted against it. The Senate is fundamentally opposed to democracy.

Conductors have been mounting and dismounting moving equipment in switching operations and crew changes for over one hundred years. This practice became prohibited by all class 1 railroads about 20 years ago; until recently when CSX removed the prohibition (Under 5mph). This is to save time and fuel, especially since a crew change can be safely accomplished without dumping all the air to come to a complete stop. Then waiting almost 30 minutes to recharge the air lines across 100 cars.
In order to go in between train cars and “lace air“ (connect glad hands for brake lines) one must establish 3-step protection. The three steps are:
1) Reverser in neutral and removed if equipped
2) Throttle in idle
3) Field generator switch in open position: making it impossible for any electricity to move the wheels in the engine
Only after communicating with the engineer that 3-step is in effect can you go in between.

Do you feel that is adequate to do the job safely?
railways are dangerous and its because of equipment design and lackluster regulations.
for example id be on call to work from midnight to 8am. it was a battle to stay awake driving a truck for 8 hours like that. even though i have hte right ot say no, they can find another reason to fire me if i do which they wouldnt otherwise.
another example is theres not much gap between the platform you ride on the side and the wheels. if you were to slip who knows what could happen, which is why they tell you to get off cars with i forget which leg first.
another example is i used to go on road trips up the canyon. there was insufficient space between the canyon and the tracks should the train derail. many crews just fell to their deaths because of greed.
i also thought of something else. the whole mentality where ppl are expected to tough it out is just another excuse for conformity. its very profitable for the rich if u dont complain.
i know its hard to imagine zub, but injustice has been going on for a long time and ppl dont follow their best interest.
look at the hand rails. the corporations are too greedy and cheap to build them high enough to have a safe centre of gravity.

Yes I do.
so u dont know anyone injured between rail equipment because of sudden movement?

I do. They didn’t establish 3-step protection.
They were a little bit careless- that’s like being a little bit pregnant.
the engineer could easily get confused and mistake his crew number for another and move it ahead.

Polls are garbage. Only activists and little old ladies take the time to answer questions.
"Do you favor or oppose raising the federal minimum wage to $15.00 an hour?"
then why do respectable ppl quote them al the time lol
whats garbage is when ppl want something but the govt doesnt care.
