If you had the slightest idea who SEIU is and the radical marxist ideology they espouse, I think you'd hunt for your sharpie too!

He does, he is ok with it. In his world things are black and white you are either for social justice (as defined by them) or you hate the poor, blacks, gays, Palestinians, women... Pick your identity group.

You forgot dozens of other groups like Trans-gender, Trans-species, illegal aliens...ooops, I mean dreamers, and anybody else who the powers that be decide to use any given day.

The victim industry is the only growth industry today.

All the messages of Capital and the right coming from unionized pilot's mouths and you wonder why it takes forever for any unionized group to get a contract signed. SMH

Where do the masterminds think the raises for the "common man" would come from? To management/ownership pay is viewed as a single pie. They don't really care how it gets cut up. Lib pilots just somehow assume they'd keep their hourly rates should for example SEIU (the only union backed by the current regime) organize the rest of any operation.

We are NOT labor in the eyes of the left. Oh no...please don't tell me you think your piddly contributions to ALPA PACs mean anything to anyone in DC, especially for cargo concerns. Buwahahaha!

The WH was directly involved in the final cargo cut-out decision via the OMB.

Dems on the transportation subcommittee helped keep TCAS off freighters for years.

We as pilots are far more like the baseball or football player unions or the Bar Association or AMA than we are UAW or SEIU.
