Stella D'Oro union workers on the picket line Sunday, June 14th 2009

For more about the strike from the union perspective and detailed wage and benefit package reductions go to:

http://www.indypendent.org/2009/03/20/bronx-bakery-battle/

This was published in May of 2009.

Most revealing are the unionist comments at the tail of the article. There are are two America, Obama's version thrives in NYC. The hard core union guys arguing that the SDO workers weren't "striking hard enough"( wink, nod, the finger along side the nose)

"No contract, no cookies!"

And now, no jobs.

Smart union members.

I am sure that they all have found jobs just as good as the ones they lost. Doesn't the union promise to help them in these times. Or are they still in the union since they have lost their jobs?

That is how the Garment Workers Union kept from paying wages to people when garment factories started shutting down in NY. You don't have a job and aren't paying union fees, then you ain't in the union.
