Over Thanksgiving I asked a family member who works at the port of Seattle what the unions thought about the attempts to shut the ports, and he said they didn’t care because under their contracts such an event was considered a safety issue and they were not required to work. I think they still get paid, but I am not sure about the details of their contract. So, maybe they won’t take issue with the commies if they try to block the ports?
They won’t get paid if companies go belly up— how stupid can they be. Bankruptcy eliminates the requirement to pay non working “workers”. This is the intent of Occupy— one more breakdown in social fabric. True union workers would find it offensive to have these punks stopping their presumably skilled work. That’s if they were a trade union, instead of a loafer’s guild.
