:: There are railroads in other countries. How do they manage it? ::

With onerous tax structures that encourages more workers to cover all shifts while forcing the worker to happy they have a job...and a no strike clause.

He’s right that it needs to all be brought down. Subsequently, it should be built back up using the same constitutional model but with some added adjustments like term limits, no unions in government service, etc. Things that would prevent the mess we are in right now.

Bernie is a fucktard communist. He needs to die in a mess of poison, fire, and bullets like all the other commies.

Exactly why should the Senate have the right to bind workers to specific working conditions in this case? Seems to me that Sanders has a solid point. If you argue that they can all be fired, fine. Replace them but I would suggest that they are skilled and not so easily replaced. Of course the Repukes aren’t considering the workers’ bargaining position. They are only thinking about the 2 billion a day. Well... Take it from the Ukraine fund.

Still more proof that labor unions only exist to serve as a front for the Socialist movement.

As Dilbert’s Pointy-haired boss pointed out, 40% of sick days are taken on Mondays and Fridays.

I’ve never seen a workplace where that is actually true. It’s always higher, especially if no doctor’s excuses are required.
