[QUOTE="Asskicker, post: 1093083, member: 45097"] I pretty much agree with this statement. But I have never agreed with what a Republican stands for. It's all about who can give me enough money to win the election. Corporations are all for the Republicans and contribute heavily to their campaigns. They do not stand up for laborers and you can pretty much see that in past practices...let's see...the Air traffice controllers (UNION) went on strike and Reagan (Republican) fired them all! Walker (Republican) ended all of the Public Service UNION'S bargaining rights. Unions support Democrats and they will do more for organized labor then any Republican ever will. If Romney won this last election we would be in BIG TROUBLE with this contract. And I agree that the bargaining comittee approves a contract but that doesn't mean we have to. We have the last say and like I said before......the Union whole pitch is that they negotiate these wonderful contracts for us. Our last contract SUCKED and I can't understand why Nationally that was voted for. Split raises? Really Hoffa? Did you give yourself a split raise???? UPS made BILLIONS when the last contract was negotiated and we hadn't yet hit any type of recession. So why did we settle for [IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG]? I also hope we don't strike. I lived through the 97 strike and my spouse also works for UPS.
