Thats because they will all be SEIU workers and paid ACORN employees down there. They are all democrats, remember they dont work so they cant get hurt.
The minimum qualifications for a Union job, unlike democratic voters in Chicago, is to be breathing at the time of hire – hence the health exposure problem.
My husband was a radio reporter sent to cover the 911 site fo 5 days. Today he suffers permanent damage to his sinuses and lungs due to the fumes, which the government said were perfectly safe (but wear any mask you can find,just in case). He wore a simple air filter mask,which he had to remove to speak into the the microphone. In any case, the rescue workers are much sicker and dying from this prolonged toxic exposure. The comments on this site about the oil sill are ignorant and selfish. Union workers include cops, fire/rescue, nurses, who do all the jobs that save our lives…show some respect. Why don’t you go down there and suit up yoursef if you think its no big deal?
Public sector jobs should not make more than the average private sector jobs. add in the crazy benefits they recieve and you get Fireman and cops making more than 140k a year and sit on their a*s 85% of the time.
This country would be better off without unions. All you get is people making 2 or 3 times what they should and we all pay for it.
Thank you to your husband for his volunteering to help with the 9-11 disaster. While he may have been sent to cover for his radio station and it may have been his job to report, it was a choice he made to cover the disaster. No one wanted or expected the injuries due to the exposure of the debris. It may be safe to say that all common sense went “out the window” when everyone went to HELP THEIR FELLOW MEN during this awful awful attack of our land. I am sure that everyone would respond the same way again if it occurred today.
The oil spill is a disaster again. I myself am no where near the Gulf, however I believe in my heart that if we can put a man on the moon, we can stop this leak. If we can put an artificial heart in a patient or transplant organs and limbs from one person to the next, we can stop this leak.
In the mean time, we all should not be watching the mess on the beaches while we point fingers at who is to blame or worry about who is in the union and who is not. Put on hard hats with lights, like the mine workers do to work in the dark, and employ the millions of americans that are out of work to help with the clean up. Do it at night when it is cool and the fumes do not eminate. Give them masks, and gloves and bags and pooper scoopers. Then send the bill to BP for them to pay, which they would be more than willing to I am sure.
Lets look at the issue at hand and instead of pointing fingers, scratch your heads with that finger and try to come up with a constructive way to HELP OUR FELLOW MEN.
Correction: it was not a choice to go cover the story and be exposed to personal risk; it was ‘suck it up or you’ll be fired’ situation. If there had been in a union, then I suppose someone might have tried to consider his safety. But no. He worked in a non-union, profit driven place where deadlines were king. (sounds like a familiar them in risk management failure, doesn’t it?)
NOT DEADLY. Key words.
Figure out how to do the clean up at night.

Yeh, just like Agent Orange…. If the government says it’s safe, I suspect it’s not.
