Las Vegas Culinary Union Clearly Is Demented

I really hope the members of the Culinary union are pleased to see where their money is going. It is going to a bunch of thugs who are clearly demented and mentally unstable.
From the LVRJ: The Culinary Union Local 226 continued to ratchet up the rhetoric in its ongoing campaign to unionize workers at Station Casinos LLC.
D. Taylor, the union's secretary and treasurer, took the opportunity Monday to compare Station's treatment of its employees to life in a Middle Eastern police state...
"Those are the characteristics of a police state ... not of a Nevada casino that has the privilege of a gaming license," Taylor said.
He also compared company CEO Frank Fertitta III and Lorenzo Fertitta, vice chairman of Station Casinos, to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and ex-Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi for what he described as lying to the media about their employees' ability to unionize.

There is no other way to say it, but D.Taylor of the Culinary union is an insane individual who is in desperate need of institutionalization for a good dose of reality, medication and perhaps some electrical shock therapy. He is a danger to the community and probably to himself.
And to the Culinary Union members, you union dues are paying for this insane union thug. And you know he makes way more money than almost every member of the union.
So, to D. Taylor, I hope you get the help you need and please stay away from people. You are a danger to the community.

  1. http://www.mynews3.com/content/news/story/Local-clergy-orchestrates-culinary-union-protest/upYQR1mISUuIWS4n0oAUhw.cspx I think there are 2 sides to this story. Agreed that unions can become TOO powerful, and need to have limits, BUT it is clear that Station casinos have their own special fight with the unions and most probably are blocking the unions from having a fair vote.

    1. Thanks for stopping by anon. From what I can see is that the employees at Stations don't want the unions and they have had several votes.
      But if the unions don't get Stations, then they lose a huge piece of the market. Stations employs tens of thousands of employees and the union, especially the leadership, want the union dues to continue their lavish lifestyle.
