God forbid home health care workers get a decent wage.

I guess you don't know about this suit that was heard today.
The Government and Unions were trying to make a Mom join the union because she was staying home to take care of her child. She applied for assistance and they gave it to her right up the ass.

Public home healthcare workers in the state of Illinois.

Unless you're the state government of Illinois, Dan, this has nothing to do with you.

I do find it interesting that you support workers being powerless against the government officials they work for, however. I thought you were a "screw the government, power to the people" kind of guy? The more you talk, the more you look like the "screw the people, power to the elite" kind of guy. You're just too pigheaded to see it. I'll bet you're a big fan of Lord Scott Walker keeping the serfs in line up in Wisconsin?

You really believe that this was about one woman?

Harris vs. Quinn. Right.

As I suspected, this actually has little to do with moms taking care of sick kids at home, that silliness is just an emotional leader, an excuse. The SCOTUS conservatives don't really give two shits about that and neither do you. It's the open door to launching attacks against unions in general. That's the greater point.

So, tell me Dan; What is it that you so love about workers being stripped of their voice and ability to stand up to employers?

Are you just a dick?

He sure has a case of the ass against unions which is strange for a dude in the construction trades. I wonder which union it was that he couldn't make the cut to get in?
