Reply to comment by KFCConspiracy in Pat Toomey was one of the 43 Senators who killed sick leave for rail workers by GraffitiTavern
I'm sure you're right about that. I just think that looking only at the sick leave vote really buries the lede, which is that every democratic senator except 6 (7 if you count Bernie) and most of the Republicans voted bulldoze collective bargaining and force workers back to work.
How can people cheer on Amazon and Starbuck unionization, and then at the same time be totally OK with this?

Yeah, I think the title here is misleading, the site as a whole I think is a biased site. And I don't say that in the same way of crowing about all media is evil.

agreed. we can recognize that all news outlets have an inherent bias without getting all MAGA about it.

Interestingly, this site is strongly left bias, but has a high rating for factual reporting. that has to be part of the factors when deciding if a news source is trustworthy.

Railroad collective bargaining comes second to the US economy. A strike at Starbucks does not disrupt every other industry.

the economy would be fine if the owners would just give these guys a few sick days.
