Five MAJOR strikes now taking place in SoCal. Grocery Clerks, MTA mechanics and drivers, an illegal "Blue Flu" in which the cops are violating a court order by falsely calling in sick (they are criminals), and then there is the political establishment which is on strike as usual. How does this affect you? Because the issue of Health Care will be nationwide very soon. Unions can't negotiate at all except against monopoly management and there is no greater monopoly than government. There is NO money to pay the MTA people because Liberals went to court and reduced bus fares, increased the number of busses on routes by law, and made management impossible. 500,000 people can't get to work. In the grocery clerk strike against three huge food chains, teamsters have joined and cut off food delivery to markets, meaning that Los Angeles could run out of food.

As I posted yesterday, the real issue here is COSTS of medical care. They are driven by huge law suits, runaway technology that patients demand, and rampant medical/legal fraud. Three things that can be handled. But they won't be handled. Get ready for strikes where you live. Soon. We haven't experienced unions running wild for decades. We will see it now.
