We don’t need nurses joining unions.

Nursing Unions are probably the ONLY unions I agree with - otherwise there’d be 12:1 patient ratios since a hospital is a “business.”

"Nursing Unions are probably the ONLY unions I agree with - otherwise there’d be 12:1 patient ratios since a hospital is a “business.” "

Unions are nothing but one foot in the work camp.

Will someone please knock some sense into these people before another entire group of people eats the union dust? It would be really nice to have some admin types fired for incompetence for once.

You are correct we don't need nurses, or any other healthcare workers joining unions.

"We will unionize your workforce, or we will destroy your reputation." Andrew Stern, SEIU President

Stern said this in the lead up to the unionization of Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Boston.

These people are evil vermin and thugs. Plain and simple.

I saw the tactics they used against BIDMC beginning in 2007, parking a billboard truck in front of the hospital with accusations of fraud, sloppy care and so on.

BIDMC caved and unionized last year.

They are all scum of the highest order. There is nothing to agree with any of them about.

Virtually NO hospitals in the United States are "businesses". They are mostly non-profits. The second category are government owned.

That's what the Obamistas are after ~ the untapped revenue source government, foundation, church and school owned hospitals can be.

Obama's crowd intend to tap into it with the tax on "cadillac insurance policies". Those are the ones that pay your hospital bills. The non-cadillac policies have large deductibles and co-pays.
