Is today a time to reflect on the long history of racism in American unions?

We don't have a Labour Day holiday but the true meaning of most public holidays here is a day in the pub.

Of course isn't that your attitude for how y'all spend most days that end in the letter Y?

I did some labor this morning. My customer showed up to see me putting on the finish on their newly stained floor. Beautiful! She said she wasn't sure if I was working on the holiday. I chuckled and told her there are no holidays for the floor guy. LOL

Yep......... You own your own business & your boss will make you work nights, weekends & holidays, more than he would ask of anyone else.

I thought it was the first holiday of the academic year.

So you just ignore the unions history of racism or you don't care about it?

Not to mention their thrill and joy at beating up the unemployed, "Scabs" who are poor and just want a job.

You got that right! I've had customers stiff me. Worked for absolutely nothing. Filed a lien like I was supposed to do, and some fucking judge dismissed it. Every time I do a job there's a little dude in my head asking if I'm going to get paid. Having the law on my side was no help.

Ever notice that the shrinking of America's middle class corresponds directly to the fading of Unions.

You people on the right are so worried about what you invision as the distribution of income when the real distribution is form middle to top, yeah, "fuck" them Unions, and in the near future all Americans will all be competing for minimum wage jobs

Better elect another FDR and Truman to bomb the rest of the world to create the environment which allowed unions to flourish.

Not often you see a conservative diss the era of Ike, I thought that was the age the right wanted to return to?
