the seiu333 strike vote passed by 81% (who knew there were that many idiots in the hospitals, oh wait i did). it doesn't mean we are on strike.. but we could go on strike at basically any time. what a pathetic excuse for a union. how ignorant are these people of the luxury their jobs provide them. how ignorant are these people of the history and the blood that gave us these unions, these securities. we bicker about pathetic little issues and threaten to strike, while in south america, eastern europe, and africa people form unions in factories and sweatshops knowing they are risking their lives doing so. as a socialist i am disgusted that a idea designed to organize workers so they will be treated fairly has been degraded into a bargaining tactic to feed the greed of the north american bourgeoisie. gag!
