I posted this before...let's enforce provisions against terrorism. You take an organization like the TWU...their people are very well paid and have greater benefits than those in the private sector, given a fair comparison as to skill and educational requirements. Essentail services strike and you have a major metroplex shut down. It was tough to get around on 9/11 (I was right there). The logistics here are somewhat comparable. The union needs to be punished, severely. I'm not complaining vis-a-vis my own planning, but most of us don't have the benefits that these people have. This union needs to be busted and put out of business and their so called leadership, jailed for a lengthy period of time. This could be argued as constituting terrorism. You do not cripple a major city like New York. These Moth..Fuc..s are criminals.

I haven't followed this very closely, but did hear that one of the issues that the TWU is striking over is changing the retirement age from 55 to 50. WTF? Many people these days are working PAST 65, and these jokers want to retire at 50? No way. Fire them all.

The big mistake was in ever allowing public workers to unionize. Considering all of the cushy perks these drones have managed to extort over the years, union membership should be absolutely prohibited.

Join a union = be fired.
