Supermarket strike

Messing with their pensions is one thing - but most people are paying for health care these days. I think their Union is causing more harm than good. These people make good money for a relatively unskilled position. I know lots of people that would be happy to work for $15/hr (double+ holiday) and pay an extra $15/week (or whatever that works out to) for health care.

Starting to hear grumbling from workers - crossing the picket lines - strike or not they have families to support. Guess two Ralphs workers beat a temp with a baseball bat yesterday in Chula Vista. Plus, locals are getting fed up supporting the strike by driving to 3 different stores to get their shopping done. This does not look good the strikers.
