Companies like C.H. Guenther & Sons are the reason the USA is in the financial bind that it's in. Instead of picking up the insurance tab and paying their workers wages that are commensurate to the success of the company, they overpay goldbrickers like Steve Phillips and construct brand new corporate offices, tax free. They don't pay taxes and they don't pay their employees enough to fuel the economy. How could any PATRIOT back them on this?

@sonicfan8573 How can you take the side of a giant company like this? Why a company that does not care about YOU or anyone else? The people on strike are flesh and blood just like you. Steve Phillips and the rest of the gang are lining their pockets with the money they are unwilling to put towards the insurance premiums of the workers who got them that money. Have you seen the office employee's parking lot?! Unless you are part of their gang I am unable to understand your view.

@sonicfan8573 It doesn't matter if he was being deployed to Afghanistan, NO GUNS ON COMPANY PROPERTY! Why is that so hard to understand? Your claims are ridiculous. Are they providing hotel rooms and showers for these homeless people you speak of? Living on the streets does not provide much opportunity for hygiene and these are the people Guenther has chosen to produce food ingredients? What machines were broken and who broke them? You obviously work for the company so please tell us.

@L7Putz the guy who had the gun wad going to a gun show. And the union hasn't effected chguenther at ALL. They even hired homeless people for 3 meals a day. All the union workers have pretty much been replaced. Did you know that they purposely broke the machines so they could get some time off. The people in the strike don't know squat.

@TheTruth42511 How do you know that the plant hasn't skipped a beat?

This video is an embarrassment. Which makes sense, because this strike is an embarrassment. Even the NLRB laughed your sorry asses out of court.

Let me explain something to you idiots, and I'll go slow because I know you're not too bright. THE WAR IS OVER- AND YOU LOST!! The plant hasn't skipped a beat, and all you can do (well, the few of you that are left) is cook hot dogs and get sunburns. And not even the NLRB can save you. Was it worth it??

Make it happen Teamsters! Keep up the good fight!

Go UNION! Any individual with loaded weapons in his vehicle who shoots himself in the leg should be considered dangerous. He is clearly an irresponsible gun owner.
