Unions have mob ties?
Who woulda thunk!
SUCKERS!
>>Irony<<
Freudeschaden! (I know it is the other way around — this version is an FR meme)
They get the government they deserve.
Oh well, Merry Chr... er Happy Holidays.
LOL! The SEIU put Rahm in there. What the hell are they crying about!? He’s their boy! Idiots. When it comes to “da mob”, isn’t that what unions are all about anyway? One mob over another mob. This is just a Chicago “turf battle”.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel connected to the mob? What is the SEIU and United Maintenance? .....Euphemisms for corruption i.e., shakedowns a la Mob/UNIONS.
READY SET GO! May the best corrupt mom based union win! Rahm only cared what contractor gave him the best kickback. No news here....move on....just normal Chicago politics.
Wow -- what a surprise.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel recently applauded President Obama for “building on the middle class and not short-changing them like Mitt Romney would do.” But unfortunately, short-changing workers is exactly what Emanuel is doing right here in Chicago.
Since Mayor Emanuel took office, he has eliminated many good jobs and outsourced others to companies that pay lower wages and benefits. Now more than 300 janitors and window washers at O'Hare International Airport are at risk of losing their jobs just days before Christmas this year because Mayor Emanuel is replacing their employer with United Maintenance, a company with a history of undercutting good jobs. Jobs that are now full time and family-sustaining may become part time poverty jobs and hundreds of families may be forced onto taxpayer-funded assistance programs.
Chicago already has the third highest poverty rate, the second highest foreclosure rate, and the highest level of racial income disparity of any city in the country. Despite working harder than ever, average Chicagoans are not seeing the fruits of their labor and Mayor Emanuel is making the situation even worse. He’s making it possible for millionaires and profitable corporations to help themselves to even bigger profits at the expense of good middle class jobs for everybody else.
This is not good public policy for the City of Chicago, and it’s not what constituents expect from a Mayor of the City that works. If we hope to restore the balance to our economy and vitality to our neighborhoods, Mayor Emanuel needs to support good jobs that can sustain families—not corporations that exploit hard-working people for profit.
I love this. The Union gets p’owned by the Mob and the poverty rate in Shi town is going up. The murder and shooting rate is the highest its ever been.
People voted for this crap - they have short memories and will probably vote for him again. They get what they get....
Communism: when they walk out for jobs benefits, but never against corruption, hating Jews and conservatives, dividing them and the country. Watch the Hitlery party rise.
I have no sympathy for the SEIU sons of whores. They vote for him and only walk out when it comes to biscuit crumb time, not when it is time to grow a brain and take back the country from corruption. Fags with fag logic all of them.
Yeah, go on prayer vigil now, scumbags, God is not coming to save your arse this time.
Should have started genuine independent government investigations at every level of government, decades ago. The unions came to power because they paid off big gov mobsters who bankrolled their campaigns, and provided the well connected with kickbacks, power, cash and prizes.
Americans were fast asleep during good times in the 50s, 60s and 70s. What we have today is the result.
The mob connection has some irony to it. The airport is named as most know for WW2 Ace Butch O’Hare. O’Hare’s dad was one of Capone’s accountants who testified against him in the income tax evasion case. He was gunned down later at the order of Capone’s #1 Frank Nitti.
Thakfully neither one controls the popcorn supply yet.
