Sting the (Bleep) Out of Them
Dear UCubed Leader: Excuse my French, but it is time to sting the merde out of THE GOP. For the last four years, they have voted against you. By my count, they voted against you 8,000 times. So this is personal. They emptied your wallets by blocking job programs... drained your savings by prolonging this jobless recovery... wiped out your net worth with their shenanigans... endangered your health by cutting back on Medicaid... took food off your table by curtailing food stamps... and used your unemployment benefits as a hostage so they could deliver tax breaks to their wealthy contributors. All I ask is this: Make a plan to go vote on November 6th. Call up a friend or family member and ask them to go with you to the polls. And when you get into the voting booth, inflict as much pain on THE GOP as you possibly can. BEE MAD @ THE GOP! Hand them a stinging defeat. In Unity -- Strength, Rick Sloan Executive Director |

Who to F is Rick Sloan and what's he the Executive Director of?
And it will get personal if Obama gets re-elected because I'm going to ride you like a rented mule on Obama's performance numbers as he continues to go into the tank for another 4 years. I also don't see much change in the congressional numbers so the grid lock in congress will make the traffic jams in NYC look like easy street. |

Rick SLoan must be one of Jetmeck's union thugs that he loves so much. I just wonder if Jetmeck lived out in California and witnessed the police officers and firefighters taking advantage of their union leaning laws allowing salaries to be upward of $150k plus would he back the unions here. Add the teachers and public union pensions going to be bankrupting California because of the promise that Calpers and Calsters would have a guaranteed increase every year regardless of the investments. My wife gets 8% automatically regardless of the investments! I am married to a teacher but I can still see the absolute joke of a deal that screwed the citizens of California.

yeah, teachers and police and firefighters don't contribute much to the common weal as much as, say, CEOs.
George Paz, CEO Express Scripts (med insurance)....2012 only.....$51,520,000.00 Stephen Hemsley..United Health Group...................2012 only.....$48,830,000.00 Clarance Cazalot...Marathon Oil............................2012 only.....$43,710,000.00 Jamie Dimon..JP Morgan.......................................2012 only....$41,990,000.00 Stephan Chazen...Occidental Petroleum.................2012 only.....$34,300,000.00 and on and on and on. why do they make so much? there is no empirical proof that any CEO contributes to any company performance metric EVER. its all mythological...they're all riding on Chuck Norris's coattails. the real reason is that each and every one of them sit on the boards of each and every one of their colleagues corporate boards and they vote themselves the earnings of these corporations. as opposed to investing in the companies futures. |

Taxpayers are on the hook for public workers salaries and increases. Why people attempt to compare public and private workers/unions is beyond me.

Union members are thugs...**** you. Say that in person clown. Union members have gotten union and non union workers pay increases and benefits and work rules increases and safety rules and etc. Your an absolute stupid **** to bag on the good guys. This letter is perfect example of you dumbass repubs not understanding the basic feeling in this country. People are not as dumb as you guys think......................... They understand who ****ed things up and who has been riding the brakes for four years just to get back into power. Obama has already won..................... I lived with a teacher for 20 years and her mom was a lifer as a teacher............your so full of **** with 150k BS. Maybe in Caliornia principles and up get paid that but even superintendents in Missouri only make 75k. Quit your lying , just Romney's lying and flip flopping.

OMG.... Rick Sloan is the Executive Director of Ucubed and Communications Director for the International Aerospace Machinists Union (IAM). This is the kind of crap you get as a message from the professional communicators of the union? |

So what does that mean are you some kind of a tough guy, if someone was to say that to you in person, what would you do?
![]() So is Ucubed some kind of support group for the chronically unemployed more like an Alcoholics Anonymous for unemployed union workers? It looks like an online tailgate party for the unemployed, I see you even get to pick an avatar for the website http://www.goiam.org/publications/pd...ing-UCubed.pdf Last edited by Pony Boy; 11-02-2012 at 01:56 PM.. |

Here are some facts Jetmeck about California and their union loving ways. Why we are in massive trouble and not even close to fixing it.
http://www.forbes.com/2010/05/07/pub...tt-joshpe.html While the Big Branch and Gulf Coast tragedies certainly warrant investigation, the real question is why a pension fund like CalPERS, whose payments are guaranteed by taxpayer dollars, is using public money to push its political agenda. This question should be especially pronounced in light of a recently released Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research study, which reveals that CalPERS, along with the CalSTRS and the University of California Retirement System (UCRS), lost a staggering $109.7 billion between June 2008 and June 2009. As the Stanford study revealed, California's public pension funds are under-funded by a stated amount of $55.4 billion ($38.6 billion of which comes from CalPERS), but their actual shortfall is likely closer to $425 billion. The discrepancy is due to the fact that public pension funds discount future liabilities (what they will pay to retirees) at the rate that they expect to earn on investments, which is inherently uncertain. Under California law public pension benefits are guaranteed (i.e., risk free like Treasuries), meaning they should be discounted at a lesser risk free rate, rather than the current rate of 7.75%--an amount that is far from guaranteed, as the depletion of equity during the financial crisis demonstrated. http://www.mybudget360.com/calpers-c...-debt-markets/ From the article on all 3 public employee retirement funds: As mentioned earlier, the pressing nature of California pension shortfalls is due in part to the losses CalPERS, CalSTRS, and UCRS sustained in the markets over the past 18 months. CalPERS expects an average annual investment return of 7.75 percent, CalSTRS targets 8.00 percent, and UCRS expects 7.50 percent.” Those expected rates of return are simply too optimistic. These funds are expecting 7.5 to 8 percent annual returns in a market that is giving 0 percent rates to savings accounts and 4 percent for 30 year fixed government debt. Instead of realigning to this low yield environment fund managers went all in to the market and gambled on Wall Street: See the link for figure 6 of the great graph and remember, who cares that they lost 25% as they are guaranteed up to 7.50 to 8% in positive returns! Here you go with Police officers, who are supposed to good citizens and look out for one another including the taxpayers. Seems they look out for themselves in a Top 10 safest city in America (Irvine) and read along and compare to Anaheim which is probably the 2nd unsafest city in OC: http://www.ocregister.com/articles/d...etirement.html The Irvine Police Department has the county's highest disability retirement rate for a large citysince the department was created in 1975. Sixty of 99 officers who have retired since the department was formed claimed to be injured or ill. Crime statistics show Irvine to be one of the safest cities in the nation. Compare Irvine to Anaheim, which has more violent crime but a disability retirement rate of only 15 percent since the department joined the PERS system in 1950. Small police departments show a higher ratio of disability retirements, in large part because they have less room to provide light duty for injured or ill workers. Buena Park police, with 93 sworn officers, had a disability ratio of 62 percent over the last 5 ½ years – five of eight officers retiring took disability. The La Habra Police Department, with 63 sworn officers, was at 47 percent for the same period – nine of 19 sought disability. Anaheim's police department – one of the largest in Orange County – had the lowest disability rate over the last 5 ½ years at 2 percent. Anaheim assigns injured or ill officers to permanent soft duty as a way to reduce medical retirements. Also ranking low for disability retirements was the O.C. Sheriffs Department, with 9 percent disability retirement over the last 5 ½ years. Officials said the sheriff's agency is large enough to temporarily reassign injured workers to limited duty, such as guarding the courthouse. "Get your OVERTIME HEEERRE! Come on over for overtime!" http://www.ocregister.com/articles/o...efighters.html Database: 2009 O.C. firefighter pay averages $131,000 ![]()
Overtime in the county's largest firefighting agency decreased by more than $3 million last year, a savings Orange County Fire Authority officials attribute to the fact there were no major brushfires in 2009. But with a growing number of empty firefighting positions at the agency and the need to staff stations 24 hours a day, seven days a week, officials expect overtime costs to climb. Firefighters mop up a vegetation fire in Brea Canyon last month. BRUCE CHAMBERS, THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER MORE PHOTOS »ADVERTISEMENT Though firefighters with the OCFA earn an average base salary of $84,000, the average overall earnings for a firefighter in the agency is $131,522 in 2009, records show. Add in the vacation pay they stack up and then get paid on the backend of it instead of when they earned their vacation pay. Big difference of not using 10 weeks of vacation pay when making $50k then to let them bank it and pay it out when they are making $89k near retirement (or more with all the free overtime they get). |

People who think companies dont need great CEO's probably also think an NFL team could function without a good coach.
