I find it hard to sympathize with ANYBODY suffering up there. There are maybe 1.25 people in the entire city (maybe a dog or cat, too) who are not slavishly devoted to EVERYTHING union. You want unions, you like unions, well, pay the price.
You obviously have no clue whatsoever what you are talking about. Most of those getting hurt live in the suburbs and are not flaming liberals, but small businesses and working slobs who are 100% against this.
Most small businesspeople are not fans of the union.
I live here, and you would be surprised how many left-wingers would volunteer to serve on Toussaint's firing squad.
I work in the finance industry and everyone I talk to ....EVERYONE is down on this union and unions in general.
You dont have a clue. Even the die hard libs in my office are PISSED off at these idiots. The strikers are not getting any sympathy from 90% of New Yorkers IMO....
