Ode to the Scabs

In dedication to the scabs who took the jobs from the strikers of "Megastorm" and who plan to take the jobs of all those who were suppose to work future Larry Levinson Productions. That is not your job, you have taken the job of someone who simply asks for better work conditions and instead gets kicked to the curb. You are a Scab. There is only one way to detoxify yourself and that is to stop crossing the picket line.

xtremepresses, your comment is a little confusing. But if you are saying the strikers agreed to work the 16 hour days fully realizing safety was not a priority of their employer and then half way through said "oh, i don't think I want to work these long hours and put my life in in danger any more" then I'd have to say you are wrong. Obviously you do not know these people and have never been in their situation.

it is discriminating agains workers of this company

[LarryScabs]

Hmmm well yes and no. If you consider "Scabs" workers then yes. But as "Scabs" are technically people who have stolen "Strikers" jobs while they are busy fighting for their rights then no, they are not the workers for this company, the "Strikers" are and this video definitely does not discriminate against them ;-)

@simontimon2 : Not quite true. Slave labor undercut free labor. However, there were Jim Crow union locals in the South as late as the early 1960's. Blacks were used by employers as scabs. You have to put it in the context of the times.

Unions where first created to keep blacks from getting jobs and to keep white job white.

Vancouver B.C. IATSE 891 .

Long before Film Union senority was abolished, junior and non members where hired before senior members.

1000 new members where hired last year while paid members sat at home.

this union is twinning a stream of income from dues x 10.

IATSE 891 hurts families

Would you consider, the security guards scabs?

LLP is a non-union company. So what are you talking about, when you say scab? Isn't a scab, someone who takes a striking, union workers job? Funny song though.

Lets throw integrity out the window and start burning witches again....
