For the DUers with family members locked out at Crystal Sugar & on strike at Verizon

Edited on Sun Aug-14-11 07:54 PM by Omaha Steve

I had to correct the title. We have one DUer family member at each location that I know of so far.

4. Do you find it at all strange that Crystal Sugar, a farmer owned

Co-op, has hired strike breakers from Strom Engineering in order to continue operations?

I wonder how the Democratic Farmer-Labor (DFL) party in Minnesota is handling the strike.

Sorry, I thought it was cute that you wondered if the DFL gave a shit about labor.

6. Also, the farmers aren't management. They could organize their shit together and put better

pressure on the executive board, though, and maybe by harvest they'll do it.

8. Happy Anniversary Aug 14 1980

Members of the upstart Polish union Solidarity seize the Lenin shipyard in Gdansk. Sixteen days later the government officially recognizes the union. Many consider the event the beginning of the end for the Iron Curtain - 1980
