Yeah, so many here wouldn’t make it past the first day doing what those guys do.

made up schemes? ■■■■■■■■■ we were assured this problem was settled before the midterm. nationalize them and fire the lot. then re privatize, with better more honest workers
Tentative agreement didn’t firm up. That’s not a scheme, conspiracy, or lie. It’s business.
no, it was a scheme to get passed the election, the union was complicit, nothing more.

A rail strike should be delayed, averted, or mitigated by any means necessary, election or not. If Biden has to broker tentative agreements every week until 2028 to keep freight moving, he should.
more complete ■■■■■■■■■ the only agreement was to keep quiet until after the election. the whole lot should be fired

Delaying a disaster has value.
Republicans wish that we were already in a catastrophic situation instead of just talking about it as a hypothetical right now and somehow Biden is bad for buying time. Nuts.
he didn’t buy time, he bought votes for democrats and lied to the people about a solution that didn’t exist.

He did…
He and his administration also…
Shut down the virus (even though more people have died on his watch than his predecessor’s)
Closed the border, that’s what Mayorkas said…(even though we are setting records for illegal border crossings and fentanyl deaths)
Claimed he has the right to spend massive amounts of taxpayer money on student loan forgiveness (judges seem to be disagreeing with that stupid plan)
Our economy has been running at, close to or above 8% inflation…(Biden tried to tell us it was zero)
He and his administration created something called the “inflation reduction act” (which does nothing to increase inflation)
From the Hill…” His administration has attempted to redefine what infrastructure means (it’s not only about improving roads, bridges and power grids but also about paid family leave and child care) and what a recession means (it’s not two straight quarters of negative gross domestic product growth anymore). But it just moved into the lead to win the “Lie of the Year” award with the claim that the U.S. economy is experiencing zero inflation. ”. https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/3601540-biden-frontrunner-for-lie-of-the-year-award-as-many-in-media-look-the-other-way/
President Biden is a lying dirtbag.

Xi and Xiden want crippled supply lines in the US. All Xiden needs to do is say a few things that will upset the railway workers and make them dig their toes in. Easy 10% for the Big Guy.
There’s no helping someone who feels lied to when it was well known the agreement was tentative.
the agreement was non existant. everyone involved should be fired. rr execs, trans dept, union execs, all of them. take out the trash

because the agreement we were told happened before the mid terms was a lie. there was no agreement to do anything but put it out of the news until the election was over.

That’s your unverified opinion. I don’t even like Biden, but you offer nothing to back up your opinion. Therefore.,
They were supposed to strike on Sept 17, 2022, a Friday. A major rail strike, more than a month before the midterms would have been terrible for Team Brandon. It was sold as problem solved, but in reality it was just a delay until a couple weeks after the midterms. And it was spun that it was all because of the wonferful efforts of the President himself. Don’t worry rank and file, we will still strike, after the elections when it is more convenient for the Ds.
Lest we forget
Railroad strike averted after marathon talks reach tentative deal

So thousands of rail workers, some of whom are Trump supporters kept the secret eh? Suuuuuure they did.
Paying railroaders a wage commensurate with their job, skill and experience shouldn’t be a bargaining tool it’s only fair. Any railroaders on this forum? If so, explain the railroad pension to everyone here. It’s no wonder y’all don’t contribute to Social Security, SS benefits are chump change in comparison.
The $11,000.00 one time payout is BS. Why? Because you’re a railroader?
Go ahead change my mind.
It’s cheaper than a strike.
They played around with the garbagemen over in the UK, everyone suffered, and the workers eventually got their money anyway.
Let’s be smarter than that, and skip the suffering. Brinkmanship is pointless when the other side has enough leverage to make life intolerable and they know it.
That’s exactly why brinksmanship is appealing here to Xi and Xiden. It will make life intolerable for Americans. China’s CCP loves that.
