  • I think we have shot ourselves in the foot. We have pushed for Health Care reform and now it is coming. Ever heard "Be careful what you wish for". Some one has to pay and it looks like it will be us.

  • Larry your the dead beat, Not the people that create jobs. I don't understand how the CWA claims to fight for us yet you go right along with the policies of D.C looters that pass legislation that hurts workers. How do you expect them to pay for a 800+ billion dollar Bill like that. That will force small businesses to close. As soon as I can I am following the ever growing group of people and revoking my membership in the CWA.

  • @rosiethesteward There no reason for a tax at all. The only reason for a tax is only if there is a single payer plan(aka public option).

    Now all you dink union memembers push for this and when it comes down to it you now don't like it. I was union for 25 years and drop when my local kept push the socialism b/s.

    You dinks pushed for the government to totally take over healthcare inthe US.

    Now that they are just about to you want to back out.

  • (the good) before the 60s we have been coasting on the coat tails of the 40s and 50s way too long! its high time ppl start

    standing on their own two feet and be

    accountable for their own lives !!!!

  • and yes i believe in taking care of our youth, not the sleezy maggots popping babies like a production factory if someone is having trouble making it with their (income from their J O B) then they should get assistance but these libs dont want to help those trying to help themselvs believe me i was one of those children watching my mother struggle (with a job) maggots like this guy would not help at all,but will sign a drunk puke with 10 kids right up its time to get back to good
  • i honestly do not understand these ppl he thinks he can get the cake and eat

    it too? wou will pay sooner or later

    we need to drop the frivolous lawsuits

    and the malpractice doctors clean house

    quit paying for duche bags to go to college and focus more on the students

    who love what they are doing,im sory

    but life is not fair the libs destroyed any

    kind of fairness by trying to make everyone equal>(communism)somework

    hard trying to cut out a good life,and some do not..

  • I'm sorry but do you enjoy paying more taxes, I don't and there are other ways to pay for this reform like taxing those employers who don't provide affordable benefits... make those who don't pay pay not those who pay pay

  • Sorry guys. Who did you really think would pay for this 800 million dollar bill, that is so big the Senators and Congressmen and women dont even have time to read before voting on. Do your homework before you vote! Dont just do what CWA tells you to do. ...Keep on working hard so others wont have to!

    About me:

    " im a cool fun person my favorit thin in the world is the US ARMY and im not sure why it put me as that im 16"

    At 16, which CWA local are you a member of?

  • When was the last time you walked an Informational Picket Line? Cohen is okay by me, so please re-examine what the man is actually saying, to mobilize the CWA Membership.
