Not another Oil Thread...

Not sure , but it sounds like blanket Replublican propoganda at best
Here are the permit rules in Nebraska and no such restriction is mentioned

Yeah, they normally put the union payoff guidlines right in the permit application!!!

Just apply for a permit on a 100M gallon/year plant and see how long it takes the board of trade union representitives to show-up on your doorstep.

It's not my fault that your claims have no basis. Just stating the facts...

Yeah, you're right. I'm sure someone with Internet access has a much better perspective than someone who works in the industry every single day. My bad!

BTW, I read on a web page that all pro wrestling is real too.

HTH

ROFL! And technically collective barganing isn't exclusive to unions either. Any group of employees can engage in "protected, concerted activity" -- but guess what percentage of this activity is union-sponsored or union-supervised?

I'm sure you have another baseless number.... As long as contractors are available to do the work, then the employment contracts or PLA can be met.

Now you're just being silly...

Protected, concerted activity is one of the "rights" put forth in the National Labor Relations Act. Techinically any employee can exert this right but unless you have a union backing you up, you're toast.

I was making an analogy. Let me explain. You see, even though PCA is a right *any* American can demonstrate, you need the support of a union to fully exert it. Simlarly (cause that's how analogies work), you don't get your air permit unless you have a PLA. But, you don't really have a "valid" PLA unless you've worked with (read: agreed to use) union members from the local trade unions.

The "mystery number" you are waiting for me to quote is ZERO. Nobody engages in PCA without a union backing them up. When's the last time an individual citizen successfully filed and prosecuted an Unfair Labor Practice (ULP)?

Wasn't it partisan arguments that got us into this current situation?

These are the conclusions that I disagree with. I had to leave the argument because of this. This is the only silliness that I see

The word contractor doesn't have to imply individual. A contractor be me having my own LLC/LLP or straight up corporation. A corp to corp doesn't have to be a 1 to 1 contract... You have simply narrowed the word contractor into a small piece of what reality is.
