I'm disgusted ran into these two young kids now married they went to school with 20. [View all]

These two work full time. Two young children one child a toddler the other child six months they were on their way to the W.I.C. office for the babies check up they just mentioned it in our conversation in the parking lot.
These two work full time yet they’re W.I.C. eligible to me this is just so wrong the young man works in warehouse and she works as a hairdresser.

I gave him name of a guy i know that works at one of the three union carriers that are left and hire dock workers. I said i know they’re still hiring as of now when you call the guy mention me I’ve worked with this guy he was man planner for us union drivers at company i drove for that went under in 2023.

I mentioned what they start at in wages i explained any time after eight is time and half any time over forty time and half two hours in wages are union dues monthly and you’ll have great health insurance for you and your family.
He replied wow that the staring wage would be an instant $17 hour raise in what he is making now. Not sure where I’m going with this bitch yet we all know have a real wage gap or wealth inequality in this country.

And healthcare costs through the husband employers that you can’t afford so you have to take your infant to W.I.C. to get a checkup i find it so sad. How does Thom Hartman say it ,they outlawed slavery yet gave us right to work.

And for forty five years my tribe of white people who feel they’re oppressed voted and still votes to make this the norm. In the bullshit the wealthy corporations if we don’t tax them accordingly will create good paying jobs so you can take care of your families.
Sitting here drinking coffee remembering the old heads the guys i used to work with in union freight in late 80’s up to mid 1990’s.
Those guys were Hoffa Sr men. A lot of them were WW2 Korean War Vietnam vets and man did i get an education from those men in break rooms eating lunch or later over shooting the breeze at night over the C.B. running the road oh and they hated Reagan as president and Robert Kennedy for going after Jimmy Hoffa.

Yet they never forgot in what they had to fight for and some of them would tell us young guys well i was young back then don’t fuck it up in what we done for you when we’re gone.
