Verizon strikers blocking Verizon truck while on strike and directing traffic around it.

[nineninefour]

Thousands of people in this country who would do ANYTHING for a paying job and these faggot entitled union fucks standing around with their thumbs up their asses.

I hope all of you lose your homes and children.

The thing people don't realize, is that CEO's usually get paid big money, because they are FUCKING BETTER at what they do than the rest of you. Not everyone is equal. There are losers in life and winners in life. Fortunately, we are human beings and have the capacity to improve. And the first step in doing so, is to realize you are a loser and take steps to correct it, not "occupy" places of business and demand entitlements from others (IE: winners).

Verizon makes 8 to 14 billion with union workers so I think they make plenty.

[ITALIAN926]

Stop wasting your time on this little girl, you cant blame her for ignorance.

[randb247]

think about what this country will look like with only two classes. The 500,000 and above crowd and the 7 dallors and hour and below crowd.

[Pillowflame]

@randb247 According to your logic, CEO's would also be getting paid 7 dollars per hour, right? Why would the company pay them any more if there is no union in place to ensure he gets paid big bucks.

OH WAIT. SUPPLY AND DEMAND BITCH.

This is HORRIBLE. I support the "scab" in the truck, he's the smart ones! GETTING PAID while you stand around all day. You're the selfish ones. Not Verizon. When you're all sitting without jobs, because Verizon isn't going to waste it's time anymore, will it all be worth it then? My father's one of you. He doesn't get any pity from the rest of us. There's hundreds of people who would just be HAPPY to have a job. The 9.2% of unemployed people in america would be HAPPY to take your jobs.

[Parknutzz]

@itsxxashley1004 Then what? Then they lower wages again and benefits again so the majority of Americans are as poor as most of India? And the rich get richer. You are an IDIOT. Verizon made record profits last year and they want to cut $20,000 dollars from each union workers yearly pay. You must be a teabagger because you don't care if the standard of living becomes something similar to Mexico's do you? You are the piece of shit who ruins this country.

[itsxxashley1004]

@Parknutzz Well there really isn't much anybody can do about what the government does is there? Thanks, i've been told. Verizon is just like every other company out there, duh they make money, they're not going to give it all to employees like you expect them to. i'm a teabagger? uh, okay. And dude, please, i haven't had the chance to ruin the country, i'm only 16, you're the piece of shit who is too stubborn to listen to anyone else's opinion.

[Parknutzz]

@itsxxashley1004 No sorry I just don't listen to everything my mommy & daddy say & then believe it. Look up our history & you will see how far we have came in workers rights. Every G-20 Country has better workers rights then we do. We are moving back rather then progressing. I bet if you could have it your'e way you would want blacks to be slaves again wouldn't you?

[Pillowflame]

@Parknutzz Your idea of progress is to progressively introduce socialism into the private sector. I assume when you speak of "other G-20 countries" you refer to places in Europe.

Well guess what, in France you are legally not allowed to work more than 33 hours a week. Also, the cost of doing business is exponentially higher because apparently workers are now "entitled" to a million benefits.

What you fail to understand is that this causes economies to collapse.

[Pillowflame]

@Parknutzz You aren't entitled to jack to shit. All you are entitled to, is the opportunity to live your life and make your own choices without coercion from the government. You do not have a "right" to free healthcare. You do not have a "right" to decide for your employer what you should be getting paid. Supply and Demand decide the worth of everything in a free market, including your labor. You aren't fighting for "rights" you are fighting for socialism. You are a menace to freedom.

[Parknutzz]

@Pillowflame "Without coercion from the government" Really? Okay so why am I forced to pay taxes then? How are they allowed to do that then? hmm. And you do have the right to decide for your employer to what you should be paid. It's called leaving if you the pay is not adequate or striking. And I personally believe you should have the right to free healthcare. It's for YOUR health. How can you be the party of family and morals but not for free healthcare as a right? You are a joke.

@itsxxashley1004

Lucky for you he made more than 12 bucks an hour, and provided you with health and dental insurance.

[KAG0607]

THEY DO WORK THIS HARD ON THE JOB, THAT IS WHAT ITS ABOUT!! if you had a clue what they are fighting for maybe you would understand. they are fighting for you to the WORKING MIDDLE CLASS

[Parknutzz]

@KAG0607 Exactly!

[picesceo]

Think of the profits Verizon could make if the Union folks worked as hard at their jobs as they do being on strike.
