    A $1 raise? $1??

    How is $1 worth a strike? Ask for at least $5 if you want leverage against the owners.

    They do, which is why many union workers voted for Bernie even though their corrupt leadership endorsed Biden.

    See, Bernie’s Medicare For All is the gold standard in healthcare coverage. There is no union that has a better plan. Plus, it requires the money currently being spent on union healthcare to go to the workers.

    Better coverage and a raise, bad for unions.

    You’re gonna have to wait until Joe falls down the steps for any chance of this happening.

    "Gold Standard for Healthcare Coverage"

    Have you seen LITERALLY ANYTHING the government has done that would fit into the "Gold Standard" category?

    Don't get me wrong, our healthcare is a shitshow today, but to call this a gold standard might be just a wee bit of a stretch.

    You(?) don’t work so you can’t afford health insurance. That’s the point.

    I’d have more respect for her and Bernie if they put their plans into a real bill instead of proclamations and put some pressure on their own party to say yes or no and allow on the record debate. Have some spine and do that or it’s just more populism to sell books and T-shirts.

    Bernie wrote the damn bill.

    If Bernie hasn’t earned your respect by this point then some political strategy, of forcing a vote on a bill that everyone knows will fail, isn’t going to change that.
