  1. You know, for all the talk and action that most Republicans and some Democrats in office have taken against unions throughout in the United States over the past 40 years, for some reason they don’t seem to want to do anything regarding holding police unions accountable.

    1. Police Union reps are the worst humanity has to offer. No matter how blatant the evidence of criminal activity, they’ll always back the cop to the end.

    2. They a government union, profit is not a concern, business losses are not a concern, image is the only concern.

    1. Solidarity for the Workers? Says every Unionist, Socialist and Communist in the entire world of Poor people, That have to rely on the 3 above mentioned entities, which are run by corrupt leadership, to feed their families and pay their debts. 😔👎

    2. Project veritas releasing leaked cnn tapes of their top global corporation executives manipulating our news for the past 4 years of lies like https://youtu.be/3vbpmoouiT8 every day at 7pm, stay tuned! https://youtu.be/oBZ1AZd4dVA you can’t deny there’s a clear agenda being pushed, it isn’t called fake news for nothing noting how the media is portraying our future not the same future the Bible warns us about the apocalypse which btw the media will never show us what’s really going on in the world economic forum and the plan to insert us the chip by force, the masks weren’t required not too long ago, now their required by our top institutions that own everything in the same format of the Illuminati sign on our dollar, 15 days to slow the so called covid spread turned to months, the vaccine now is by choice, then will be by force, if anyone can prove me wrong please do so, btw the media is going along with the dems making the election seem completely over without respecting the opposition investigations even though the constitutional processes haven’t ended still on is Jan 6 big day to prove election fraud https://hereistheevidence.com/ does it sum up to change the election? Of course it did https://youtu.be/eGplCnQzzQs they have to choose the right results by the right electors with or without the illegal ballots that confirmed what Biden said about having built “the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics with Obama” https://youtu.be/MA8a2g6tTp0 so they know Trump will win, they just use their same owners narrative for our news to make seem election was stolen, just a heads up

    3. @Brian depending on where you work and what you do. Some jobs you can’t take the thought process out of. Some jobs will always have leverage.

    1. Hahaha CNN communist news Network does a story on Google employees forming a union. And CNN spent years fighting against unions themselves. What did you pay out CNN 70 80 million dollars when you finally lost your case against the Union. Pull up your diaper baby your butt is showing.. hahaha LOL give me a break.

  2. In the words of one of my favorite songs “solidarity forever solidarity forever solidarity forever the union makes us strong”

    1. Some entity that knows how to, PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING:

      * Create a national non-profit organization that looks out for the interests of the American workers. Could even call it the ‘NEO’, National Employee’s Organization.
      * Model it after the AARP that looks out for the interests of older people.
      * Anybody would be allowed to join and/or support the organization and those that didn’t want to wouldn’t have to. It would not be a union but a non-profit organization.
      * I can foresee the ‘NEO’ eventually putting forward political candidates and supporting judges who are sympathetic to their cause. Given enough support, I can even foresee the Constitution of the United States being amended in a clear fashion that even Supreme Court Justices could only interpret one way.
      * It’s ‘We The People’ that truly make America great and it’s the ‘American worker’ who actually built America to be what it is.

      Rise up, unite in a national organization, and let’s take ‘our’ nation back for a better America and a better world.

      POWER TO THE PEOPLE !!! POWER TO THE EMPLOYEE’S !!! POWER TO THE NEO !!!

      * Note also: As this is my own idea, you have my permission to copy and paste this into your own files and/or elsewhere to help spread the word and to build consensus on making this idea a reality.

    1. @Jeffery Brown my comment was sarcasm but yes I was a Teamster for 10 years till I got to the top pay and couldn’t get a raise because we signed a 10 year contract the company said we would give you a raise but y’all have a contract I had to quit my job and go to another company to make more money

  3. The stock markets help to raise money for companies when they need capital to expand, and this in turn creates the potential for investors to make money on stocks. Investors can get help from experts who can guide prospective investors for the best. Investors need people like Joel D Ayers.

  4. I wish Amazon and Walmart would unionize too! Better yet, I wish there was a political party that supported workers instead of the corporations.

    2. @Citizen’s USA you act like thats not a problem with capitalism and that even news networks down to janitors are fucked intentionally by companies and not a single one willingly wants a union cutting into their profits including cnn

    1. Labour is rewarded because of the idea of private ownership. Private ownership enables the labour of individuals to bear fruits on the basis of the need for the particular skill in the economy.

      This is why people are not paid the same. Because, they have not expended equal amount of effort. Skills highly prized by the economy need time to cultivate, which is why individuals able to hone those skills are paid well.

  5. Welcome to the real world. bosses have always bullied, discriminated against and sacked anyone who standsup to them!
