A very effective way to strike!

[Rez O. Lewshun]

There will be no strikes as long as there are two pro company board members on the national meditation board. www.nmb.gov

The president appoints the board members.

The current presidential candidates were sent a questionaire by the AFL-CIO about labor issues. Those candidates that replied are invited to a debate in Chicago.

If you want to strike and show manangement then a pro labor president needs to be elected.

This is how it gets done.

You don't fly slow, write mx up, call in sick, etc..

You play the political process... slow, methodical, organized and deliberate...

Don't get me wrong, I hear what you are saying and having voted all my like for (R) I am, for the first time ever, rethinking my position.

Unfortunately, a President's "loyalty" to labor and the promises that are made are only good up until the time the election is over.

Clinton stopping the APA strike is proof of that.

As soon as any airline has the potential to negatively effect the seemingly constant-teetering US economy we will probably see a PEB. That may seem pessimistic.

Also, the NMB will always have some carry over from the prior administration because the terms are staggered. It was designed that way as a system of checks and balances.

I guess I'm just a skeptic when it comes to either of the major political parties in our country. More and more I've come to believe that politicians only say what they need to get votes to get elected or stay in office and after that they follow their own personal agenda rather than that of their constituency.

But yes, you are correct. Using the process in place to achieve the results you want is the best. And it is slow, methodical, organized and deliberate.
