Speaking of unions, and with that the MTA always comes to min; I watched “The Taking of Pelham 123” last night.

I saw that a week ago too! Great movie! Denzel did a great job playing the MTA executive. John Travolta, not so much.

This is just the sort of thing I rant about….”Always entitled to more” should be the union motto.

Dave, I agree. This is the sort of entitlement complex that I really hate. Everyone is out there to f*ck the system to extract more than their fair share. Everyone is out with their outstretched hands looking for a handout from tax payers. And this applies to both greedy TARP bankers as well as fat union cats.
We can do better in this country.
That is catchy phrase. ….”Always entitled to more”.
I like it. But I think the corporate CEO’s already have it trademarked .
I’m not a TARP recipient so no rent boys. But I am pushing that in my next union contract that that is paid for along with all my other benefits.
