To Protest Hiring of Nonunion Help, Union Hires Nonunion Pickets

Damn it, where are my cockroach killers....

What does that have to do with Wisconsin?

 

[MrDank007]

If it's as bad as all that, they should be on the lookout for a new line of work.

Wait...

What?

LOL!

No...let's just say it. We need to subsidize a nation of bums no matter what the cost in every caveat possible. We can level the playing field to where we are all helpless broke dicks with our hands out, enslaved by and completly dependent on the establishment. Establishment' Establishment you always know what's best....

Glad to see you are still ignoring me.

LOL!

I was merely refuting this ridiculous statement.

The Koch brothers pay their protesters. Union folks volunteer. I know I know, that's a difficult concept for you to wrap your head around. People actually doing things that aren't motivated by money or greed. Protesting isn't a job (which you well know but thanks for the THINK OF THE CHILDREN!! rehash) so no child labor laws were broken.

Deflection only betrays the weakness of your position.

how is 'subsidizing bums' your talking point in a thread about teachers and other public workers who bargained themselves pay cuts?

i don't think you'd call my sister in law a bum if you met her in person. and if you did, she would make you look pretty stupid. she has a stellar vocabulary, being an english teacher and all.

i don't think you'd compare her to a 'broke dick' with her hand out, either. i would wager she works harder than you do and has a better education, to boot.

so take your insults towards working people like my sister in law and kindly go fuck yourself.

 

[UncleBuck]

Are you saying we have 10% billionaires in the country? In reality those other 9 have nothing because they sit on the couch watching reality shows and never try to move to the next level. There are few people in the country who could not move to the next level if they really tried.

we should make it easier for them to move to the next level by cutting their benefits and pay. because obviously, capital is unimportant. it is all about just being motivated and needing it!

you are a genius!

In America we are at a unprecedented level of prosperity.

try telling that to the majority in the middle class who has seen their pay decrease or remain stagnant for a decade or two now.

also, my sister in law would implore me to educate you that you should use 'an' rather than 'a' preceding words that start with a vowel. she teaches 2nd grade, and so would definitely want me to relay that to you.

Once again, what does it have to do with Wisconsin? Your link talks about Unions that have no bearing on Wisconsin or is representative of the people struggling to save their rights. Yet you accuse ME of deflection? How much do they pay YOU to be a shill?

 

[UncleBuck]

Invading Iraq was the Republican and Democrats together.

ha, you are a funny fucker. so silly.

half the democrats voted against the thing. obama was out protesting the war before it happened.

but damn near evey republican voted for it.

so silly.

just ridiculous these things you say.

Yeah, deflection. Because your question meets the definition.

And exactly what does CHILD LABOR have to do with this particular union temper tantrum?

My link rebutted your ludicrous claim.

Deal with it...

or continue to snivel.

Johnny you must be brain damaged. The original point of the poster I was answering (not you) brought up the child labor accusation. You went off on a fucking tangent about unions that have nothing to do with Wisconsin or the protests there. That fact that I have to explain this shows who is actually doing the deflection. Dealt with. Try and focus on Wisconsin if you can. I know it's hard for you.

Earlier than that.

It's in the record now.

The posts will not be erased by YOU.

So continue to snivel.

Earlier than what? that was the entire exchange. I'm done. Continue your rant about whatever the fuck you pull out of your ass. You do that quite well.

I was speaking generally about your ideology. As far as you comment on work ethic...please don't make me rant about why you make $10/hr and why I don't have to.

The record is quite clear.

Yet the sniveling continues....

I actually read these links you guys put up. Weren't you the one that had the wonderful Forbes link? So what was your takeaway from this nothing more than commentary piece?

 

[NewGrowth]

bad analogy, dude.

"stealing" from peter to pay paul is not what happens here.

tax revenue collected goes into things that benefit peter AND paul.

now, besides the miltary, name a few ways in which spending is "out of control".

you proclaim it to be so, as it is one of the current most overused phrases by mindless drones on the right, so tell me what needs to be cut. tell me what is unsustainable.

i'm waiting.

You asked,

Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, "Obamacare", welfare, unemployment, disability, massive overseas wars, the DEA, the CIA, the EPA, hundreds of 'pork barrel' projects. Income tax revenue benefits private bankers, gas tax builds roads, property tax pays for schools, police, and fire. So basically property owners pay for all necessary public services. On top of that about 40% of my income is taken by government. How it that not stealing? I don't benefit from your entitlements.

Does that mean you are back to ignoring me again? LOL!

Child labor is not germane to this discussion either. It was mentioned early and often in this thread. Yet not a peep out of you that it had nothing to do with Wisconsin.

Which makes your feeble deflection of my point proof that you are a partisan whiney-pussy.

But we knew that already.

Hey, so if you don't pay children they aren't working? Excellent. Ill start rounding up 12 year old kids to work for free in my sweat shop immediately. Ill call it advanced social education class.

Protesters in Wisconsin were taking sick days and personal days ect - so they were getting sick. If I called in sick to work over and over and then they saw me at a parade on TV, I don't think it would go down very well. When Unions go on strike, they get payed don't they?

 

[Carthoris]

Unsure how that is a response to asking how someone came up with a stat that 10% of the people in the country are billionaires and the rest have nothing at all. Thanks for playing though, I suppose.

try telling that to the majority in the middle class who has seen their pay decrease or remain stagnant for a decade or two now.

If you think the world started 20 years ago, then I suppose you could disagree. However, I stand by that statement. Consider that society has existed for thousands upon thousands of years, and at this point in history even the poor and downtrodden in America live in houses with AC and have cars for the most part. How many people do you know who don't have computers, cars, places to live, and good to eat? Only those who have completely given up on life. Even minimum wage can supply all those things if you are responsible with your money, even without taxpayers subsidizing you.

also, my sister in law would implore me to educate you that you should use 'an' rather than 'a' preceding words that start with a vowel. she teaches 2nd grade, and so would definitely want me to relay that to you.

Ok, you don't get to lecture people on writing and then not use capitalization in the same sentence. That is like saying "Yea, well you smell" in response. Pointless and makes you look like an idiot.
