The "lesson" of the Wisconsin worker protests. You are suckers, waiting to be fleeced
Edited on Fri Feb-18-11 07:06 PM by SoCalDem
Workers:

The next time you are presented with a wage-benefit package by your employers/unions, take all you can get NOW..even if you have to strike

For decades, your predecessors were fair-minded and accepted less pay now, than they deserved, in exchange for enhanced benefits LATER...and now we again see what happens to that "deferred wage increase"..It gets used up, stolen, pilfered, given away to rich buddies of pols,and it's your stolen labor for every contract you agreed to, that cannot ever be reclaimed or re-compensated for.

You are being played for suckers, and the "management" has NO intention of ever coughing up what you are expecting.

Future "leaders" will happily barter away those stolen labor-hour-wages you "donated", and if you are at or near the end of your career, you are just S.O.L.
