Andrew Breitbart Getting Sued by Sherrod Yesssssssssss!!!!!

And what happened to the Dems of that time. They sound like the reps today. See if you can find who said this;
"The process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service."

 

You stated "If I simply went with with the historical odds, I couldn't go wrong." I was simply pointing out history for you.... As far as "women's reproductive rights", what about the rights of the babies? Dems are so hypocritical it makes me want to puke. Dems act as if they're concerned about human rights, but they aren't. Scratch the surface of the Dems and you'll see the slime that lies beneath.

 

And the rights of people that don't exist being more important than those that do exist seems hypocritical enough to puke over also. Republicans act as if all human life is precious but support the death penalty. So who really has the monopoly on hypocrisy? Finger pointing is an easy game to play. You work on your hypocrisy and I'll work on mine.

 

My guess is FDR but even he would have had a 1930's reference point. Collective bargaining has worked fine in the public sector for decades. Thanks to the private banking sector creating one of the worst recessions in this county's history, public sector benefits have had to take a hit and they have, through their union negotiators, accepted the additional financial burdens during this recession and at the same time businesses have been asked to contribute nothing and been given even more tax breaks. Kind of makes you scratch your head doesn't it?

 

Oh, man, there is so much in that paragraph I wish I had the time to parse it out. However, I will stick to to something in the order of the topic of late.

First, since you apparently disagree with FDR, historically speaking, you were apparently wrong. Nice start.
Second, "Collective bargaining has worked fine in the public sector for decades." - in every way except for the massive public unfunded pension debt, bankrupting governments and causing public strive. Are you saying that is fine?

I wouldn't touch the rest of that with a ten foot pole.

 

Not even sure what this sentence means. It's just gibberish.

You are confusing collective bargaining with government mismanagement of the trust funds and then blaming collective bargaining for the whole mess. That just might be your own biases more than anything else.


[/QUOTE]You can't seem to remove your ideological perspective from the reality of a situation and discuss it rationally.

 

Sorry, but you are confusing you perspective of why your historical predecessors did not want unions in the public sector.
