This is an orange:
I don’t vote for RINO morons.
Tim Scott is a neo-con tool.
Reagan fired the air traffic controllers who were FAA employees. The current situation is not the same. UAW auto industry employees are not working for a federal agency.
Yeah I can’t side with corporate raiders and CEO’s. Big companies like GMC and Ford are quasi government owned entities. They build what the government says they should build. Very fascist.
I don’t think Tim Scott is very bright.
Reagan fired the air traffic controllers because it was illegal for them to strike. IOW he was just enforcing the law. That has zero applicability to the auto workers striking.

I believe in a level playing field. With a few exceptions for public safety, workers have the right to strike. And an employer has the right to permanently fire those workers for striking.
However, many states now have laws that prohibit the *permanent* firing of striking workers. The employer had lost his ace in the hole. The workers still have theirs. It’s no longer a level playing field.
The establishment believes nothing should stand in the way of the power they obtain from global warming measures.
Ask Scott if he’d support rescinding Kennedy’s EO 10988...
That is a politically-dumb answer. The answer should have been: The two sides need to hash this out themselves.
Note to Tim Scott: Auto workers are not Federal employees. Scott needs a 101 course in comparing apples and oranges.
Tim Scott is not ready for Prime Time.
I wouldn’t hire Tim Scott as 3rd shift manager in McDonalds, but that’s me.
Truman called out the National Guard on striking steel workers, but that was a completely different situation.
Talking about Reagan in this situation make him sound as dumb as a Dimocrat.
The auto companies fear strikes not only because of increased costs of a successful strike, but also the fear of losing market share to companies not engaged in the strike. The auto companies should do what the Maritime Association did back in the '50's. They got together and agreed they would all shut down their docks. The total closure forced all stevedores out of a job, resulting in a flood of unemployment claims on the strike fund, which was neither anticipated or planned for by the union. The total dock closure meant no one lost market share because they were all closed and the workers couldn't hold out because, without strike benefits, the workers quickly agreed to settle on less-that-favorable terms.
I don't know why the auto companies don't do something similar.
So Tim Scott is literally retarded and doesn’t understand the difference between federal workers and private employees?
Timmy: The Air Traffic Controllers were federal employees under control of DC and the president.
The Union Bosses always demand their members vote Democrat.
Now the Democrats have brought you high inflation so you need more pay to make up for it.
If the Unions go on strike, the Democrats have also flooded the US with illegal aliens ready to take the place of the striking workers.
No matter how this turns out, in the next election I expect the Unions to demand their members vote ...DEMOCRAT.
Firing employees, whose work was under a government contract that specifically prohibited strikes and was critical to the safety of thousands of air passengers, is completely different than a labor dispute between private companies and a union. On the face it an idiotic remark.
