Massive rail strike next week could deal another blow to America's economy

New York (CNN Business)Freight railroads have been around since the 19th century, but you can't run a 21st century economy without them. The looming possibility of a strike by unions representing more than 90,000 workers at the nation's freight railroads has businesses nationwide worried. The unions are poised to go on strike on September 16, a move that could bring 40% of the nation's freight to a grinding halt.

Anger over work rules

The conductors' union and other six unions poised to strike, which includes the one representing engineers, are not satisfied with the work rule recommendations, and how the "on call" requirement will affect the quality of their members' lives, denying them any free time with their families even when off of work.
The unions are urging allies in Congress not to act, arguing that a strike is the only way to reach a deal that can improve what they say are intolerable work rules driving employees to quit the business, causing staff shortages and well documented service problems in freight rail service.
"The fact is they [the railroads] are counting on Congress to act," said Dennis Pierce, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen. "We've let them [the union's allies in Congress] know we need them to stay out of it."
"This is a chance for the Democrats to stand up for something they say they support, the working class and labor," Ferguson said.

Record profits for railroads
The strike threat comes as several railroads, including Union Pacific (UNP), Norfolk Southern (NSC) and Berkshire Hathaway's (BRKA) Burlington Northern Santa Fe have reported record earnings.
The unions argue the companies are making the profits on the back of their employees, creating conditions that are driving workers to quit. Employment at the nation's major railroads is down by more than 30,000, or about 20% of the workforce, since the last contract was reached in 2017.

由此看来，美国的工会比中国的工会更左。中国的工会从来不替工人说话，中国的工人目前百分之九十九以上都是每天工作十小时以上，国有企业和外企除外
