BC health care workers vote to strike

. But c'mon gramma, all these things will cost more, and apparently no one here wants that.

No, you're wrong....... Apparently no one here wants pay increases to the existing workers......no one has said they wouldn't pay for MORE workers. Paying more for increased work force in the health sector would be an improvement to society on the whole...not just one persons pockets.

Yes it can go broke if it's income doesn't meet it's expenses just the same as any capitalistic business.

The government IS broke! If the government was a private sector business...do you think it's creditors would still be supporting it?

I don't suppose it would have occurred to you that perhaps your contract was just a little too sweet before? Too many sick days and holiday days, too many benefits you got for nothing, too many perks, too much money?

Do you complain this loudly and passionatley about how the MLA's are paid, as well as their benefits and golden parachute pension?

Yes.

Do you?

Do you complain this loudly and passionatley about how the MLA's are paid, as well as their benefits and golden parachute pension?

So your argument is you deserve more unjustified perks, because someone else gets them?

EPIC FAIL!

Where did I say that? I asked a question.
Lots of bitching about the people who go to work everyday to save lives. Once they get into the hospital it is a different story, isn't it?
