[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3030045, member: 58386"] Let me try one more time to break it all down simple enough for your brainwashed little mind. I NEVER SAID that's X's fault. Here's what I'm getting at. This site is full of whaaing about X's manipulation of the pay scale and benefits and they're clearly legitimate but it's nothing compared to what they could do. In fact they could walk in some morning and say " we're cutting your wages 20% tripling your health care deduction and freezing our contribution to your pension plan. Consider yourselves fortunate that it isn't worse". In essence they're daring you to undertake a work stoppage. So what are you going to do? I know that you're thinking to your self," they'll never do that", but what's there to stop them? At that point the votes in favor of that long overdue necessity of a nationwide union shop might just be there but would require a work stoppage. So how long would one last? A week. Week and a half at the most. Then everybody will go back to work and swallow the pay cut. Why? Because they never prepared to this type of event. Verizon went out on strike last year for more than a month to stop the outsourcing of 13,000 jobs . How did they do it? Simple. They did what the NFLPA did a few days ago . Their contract isn't up until 2021 but they told the owners that there will be a strike in 2021 and told their rank and file to start preparing for one [B]NOW[/B] . There will indeed come a day when X grunts are tired of being cuffed around and slapped around and want to resist but only a handful are prepared. [/QUOTE]
