  • @afhoeschen lol, class sizes arent determined my Colective Barganing, and almost evrything els on that list is whats wrong with unions...

  • @traceurOG lol oliver, you are kind of ignorant to the subject, no offence...

  • Oh mr.Delutio, u poor misguided soul... oh oliver, mahdi, katie, jesse, mr. bruss, jenny, you silly gooses...

  • One time I was on a channel about workers giving up concessions to help balance the budget and some corporate apoligist republicans kept playing the same game of saying these unions are wrong and will not give up anything. These republican ELITIST mouthpieces would not tell the truth....... only that the middleclass workers were selfish. Where do they get these freaks from........the pen? It is almost laughable, how ignorant their debate is, since it is all lies.

  • The bill just strip away the right to bargain over salary increases in excess of CPI, health insurance contributions, benefits, and eligibility, life insurance, sick leave benefits, sick leave eligibility, vacation benefits, lunch breaks, assignment extra duties, seniority, promotion standards, discipline, termination, class sizes, overtime pay, call-in pay, cell phone allowances, mileage reimbursement, educational incentives, and any other benefit or work rule you can think of. That's all.

  • This bill doesn't strip anyone of the right to collective bargain their salary. It does remove collective bargaining from benefits. There is a difference, and it is a difference that the budget needs long term. Would you rather they lie to you and tell you that they can pay you as much as you want and as long as you want?

  • Great song, but nobody's getting "stripped" on their rights. I like that you interviewed mostly children who know next no nothing on the issue. Maybe you could have questioned people who actually know something about what's really going on? I mean people have died so we can have this conversation, but all this boils down to is money and IGNORANCE.
