SAN FRANCISCO'S TRANSIT WORKER'S BLUE FLU

http://news.yahoo.com/bay-area-commuters-face-delays-transit-workers-call-204813890.html

Way to go, San Francisco!

It sounds like their situation is similar to Metro drivers.  Of course, union-busting Metro CEO John Nations** has let his drivers go for six years without a new bargaining contract, raise, and also eroding the pension plan, especially for new hires.

Nations himself, however, has been receiving his $250,000 a year salary, and his bonuses.  As are the other executives.

Politicians, and civic leaders, and "powerful" businessmen keep telling us what a great job they are doing, and how we can't live without them.  It would be chaos and anarchy, nothing would get done without them.

But the truth is, they need us much more than we need them.

BOYCOTT METRO JULY 1ST!

Time to show our strength!

**Nations is fond of telling his drivers that the first thing he will do when he gets out of Metro and becomes governor or senator is to pass "Right To Work".  Legislation that makes it possible to hire non-union employees to do the same work for lower pay. We need more unions, not fewer.
