“I used to have about four controllers retire a day before the shutdown. I’m now up to 15 to 20 a day are retiring,” Duffy told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.” “So, it’s going to be harder for me to come back after the shutdown and have more controllers controlling the airspace.”
“So, this is going to live on in air travel, well beyond the time frame that this government opens back up.”
Air traffic controllers are set to miss their second consecutive paycheck on Tuesday, with many missing work and taking second jobs. Duffy added that 81 controller staffing shortages were reported at facilities across the country on Saturday, an increase of 20 such instances relative to Oct. 31.
Unionization and strikes are fully doable with the means provided, especially given large unions that could assist with their strike funds. We do not live in legal slavery yet, and being willing to make the small sacrifice today for a better tomorrow is necessary to keep it that way. Sign up for a union today, organize your workplace tomorrow, and prepare for a general strike.
Unions and strikes are the symptoms of a failed system. I have a really bad feeling the moment everyone realizes the aristocratic society wanted this economic system the sooner we can switch to a real economy that doesn’t have socialism. Capitalism works but most companies should’ve died in covid not being able to make it. The fact that all these companies saw record profits means its a controlled market and no longer capitalism anyways.
This is the result of capitalism, caused by it. Capitalism inevitably brings about a failed system.
But, unions are also a part of capitalism . They allow every to bargain. Otherwise, everything is captive to the rich
