Loading ...WOW – is a 24% wage increase considered inflationary? –> Railroads And Unions Reach “Tentative Agreement” To Avert Rail Strike
“There is a tentative deal to avoid a rail strike. Railroads say tentative agreements include a 24% wage increase during over by 2024 — w/14.1% bump effective immediately — and 5 annual $1,000 bonuses. Unions get their sick time demand. Deal followed a 20 hour negotiating session,” Van Cleave tweeted.

With the government working so “hard” to get this agreement, will they extend similar increases to pensioners, veterans, the disabled, etc???
Seems appropriate –> Food Stamps For US Soldiers –> the Pentagon believes 24% of enlisted personnel are food insecure. How on Earth could the US expect to maintain a strong military when nearly a quarter of members cannot provide their families with food? The military budget is certainly not hurting for funds.

“The military budget is certainly not hurting for funds.” Not to feed military families but yes to waste money on weapons for Ukraine that probably end up being sold on the blackmarket to line the pockets of Ukraine oligarchs.

wow…24% over 2 years
That shows what the real inflation rate is projected to be
Print it …and spend it…fast
I’d say this puts a dent in the theory “They” are trying to destroy the Food Chain
