Disney Union Workers On Brink of Losing $1000 Bonus -- Meanwhile CEO gets $423 Million

All 36% 8:40 PM Q Search 8:02 PM U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders. US Senator for Vermont 1hr It turns out that the $1,000 bonus Disney promised to give its workers as a result of Trump's tax cut is a sham. Disney is telling its workers that if they don't accept a contract increasing their pay by just 50 cents an hour, they will not get their $1,000 bonus. No wonder this contract was rejected by some 90 percent of its union workers. Meanwhile, Disney just approved a compensation package worth up to $423 million for its CEO. $423 million for Disney's CEO; 50 cents an hour for its low-wage workers. That is the definition of corporate greed.

IS THIS A PRACTICAL SOLUTION? If just Mitch McConnell, Orrin Hatch & Lindsey Graham were guillotined outside of the Capitol, the Republican tax cuts could not pass in the Senate. Pros - Taxes on the middle class would not go up. Three ruthlessly corrupt & terrible politicians would be removed from the Senate and this existential plane. - The wealthiest 1% would not get the tax cut they bribed our politicians to pass. There would be no excuse for cuts to popular programs like Medicare and Social Security. Cons The number of politicians getting guillotined isn't more than three... Ves
