Surber: Liberals sell out unions
2022-12-02
Communism began in America with the unions.

Unions largely delivered on promises of higher wages for the working class often were delivered in the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. The average pay for a Union Pacific Railroad work is $93,000 a year.

That's almost as good as the $108,538 a year that federal employees average.

But with communists, people are disposable. So it was with the workingman. In the 1970s, communists worked to shutter factories. Red China now dominates manufacturing from pencils to penicillin.

Of course, this puts America in peril.

On April 28, 2021, Market Watch reported, "Right now, the U.S. has virtually no capacity to manufacture antibiotics. That’s because Red China currently controls roughly 90% of the global supply of inputs needed to make the generic antibiotics that treat bronchitis, pneumonia, pediatric ear infections, and life-threatening conditions such as sepsis.

"At the peak of last year’s COVID-19 hospitalizations in the U.S., these generic antibiotics—including azithromycin—were urgently needed to treat secondary bacterial infections. However, the U.S. faced a potential shortage, since the key materials for azithromycin and other drugs are supplied by Red China."

So, we became dependent on Red China for drugs and Red China subsequently unleashed a manmade virus upon us.

But American communists defend this as the free market at work. Never mind that Red China uses slave labor to run its factories

Of course, to ship goods from Red China to New York, you need railroads. And after a couple of years of working mandatory overtime and the like, railroad workers want some relief. They are threatening a strike.

In the old days, America's Marxists would rally behind them.

Not this time.
