  • Kroger disliked this video.

  • @guitarthroat Yes, and how myopic of you to think that my statement suggested that the Unions are the only cause of the problem. Maybe you need to shutup.

  • @mojojodon How myopic and uneducated on your part to blame America's problems on one cause like organized labor. A statement like the one you made shows how one-dimensional you are. I guess you need to suffer at the hands of greedy people a little to understand.

  • Unions ruined America. Served their purpose, now gtfo

  • what this union needs is the old man back or someone like him

  • america doesn't like unions. never has. american media has shone a poor light on his life and death. a martyr for the workers.

  • another question why would the union agree with having scabs haul are frieght at YRC. we have teamsters sitting at home while Glen Moore pulling are trailers. friend at Holland told me they had frieght for the west coast instead of using yellow-roadway they had a scab contractor move it in Akron OH Roadway had teams running to the west coast .not any more. most wouldnt want to run team . better than sitting home layed off losing everything you worked hard for thanks Jimmy great contract

  • I got a question whats the work rules at YRC have to do with the economy,meaning them changing the the local agreements doing away with job classfications and combinding job classfications? theres guys working 14hrs a day and barely breaking a mini.or just a mini. do the math about 10-11dollars a hour thats a roaddriver. i talked to guys that have told me that worked 14hrs a day four startsin a week and only grossed 750.00 a week thats less than local cartage rate

  • YOU'RE A FUCKING SELL OUT HOFFA.

  • HPAE-AFT, Englewood Hospital: In New Jersey, 700 nurses, represented by the Union of Health Professionals and Allied Employees (HPAE-AFT), launched pickets outside of the Englewood Hospital and Medical Center after management locked out workers and hired replacements. HPAE-AFT offered to rescind their strike notice, but management said they had to honor their contract with the company, US Nursing, supplying the replacement workers.
