[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5880420, member: 58386"] That's the mindset of today's MAGA conservative for you. Any legislation that provides benefit and improves the quality of life for a MAGA....that in the mind of a MAGA is good legislation, good for them and therefore good for the nation as a whole. Now any legislation that for one reason or another fails to benefit a MAGA is bad policy and not good for the nation. And so I've doomed the working glass huh? Just what have I done? And BTW just exactly where in the private sector has your union been lately? Well let me remind you of the conversation and I told you this before I had with my state's AFL-CIO president. I jumped on him about the fact that the union's have a very strong presence in my state's public employee sector but a near non presence in the private sector. Pressing him for an answer he finally had the come out it admit it.....The reason you don't see them is because today private sector employers have far more numerous and effective countermeasures including legal measures such as lawsuits and injunctions that could cost labor unions a ton of money, money they may not have and given that nationwide only 12 % of all workers are represented by a union it's easy to be why unions today are hesitant. Remember the California minimum wage law is state legislation only. The legislation that provided protections to you and your union is federal legislation. So the real question is.....why did this group of workers have to seek the help and protection of the California legislature in order to gain some relief from their impossible to live on wages? The answer is simple. Your no longer powerful labor unions were nowhere to be seen.... And that is NOT my fault. [/QUOTE]
