Wow, so they go offered a pay raise and a 4 day work week, then went on an illegal strike anyway?! All my life I got to hear my parents bitch about how Reagan killed unions, and come to find out the stupid idiots did it all by themselves. If my parents were actually honest about the whole thing, they wouldve said Patco killed unions, not Reagan.

What about amber yolks vs yellow yolks?

Unions perpetuate bad employees, poor quality goods, extremely high consumer costs, and endless delays. Ever wonder why Infrastructure in the US is so expensive? What about grocery store prices at unionized grocers like Kroger? Unions are bad for everyone, especially in non right-to-work states where you are forced to pay membership dues even if you want no part of the union. The core argument of unions is "My boss gets compensated better than I and that's not fair". Perhaps you get paid less because you have less risk/responsibility/experience? Unions are also responsible for bankrupting multiple companies. Take Hostess for example. They also result in poor quality products. Guess why Boeing planes keep having issues? If you hate your boss & management switch careers , job hop, or upskill. Mediocre losers join unions.

The problem is that cities are so expensive it makes owning an apartment impossible. I lived in New York City for 20+ years and had to leave because otherwise I would be renting for the rest of my life.

Ankle monitors for all cases that are worthy of bail is the answer

I was in a union and am glad of it. It gave me a pension. And decent wages at the time.

Federal Legislation has CODIFIED many (most) of the safety, health, equity, dignity, et al issues which spawned the 'Union Movement'.

Eggs don't raise your cholesterol levels.

I show this video in my English classes to students

This is what republicans care about??? “Making liberals angry” I think its funny that Pam Bondi and Trump are now talking about restrictions on guns WITHOUT DUE PROCESS. 😅😅😅😅 FULL OFFENSE REPUBLICAN VOTERS ARE SHOWING THE RESULT OF RED STATES LIKE OKLAHOMA RANKING 49/50 in Education

Besides, that strike was illegal,they were in violation of federal law

Phuque all the way off.

Kneel, Kneel, Kneel!

I think the libtards hair us on fire. They know they got caught

"TOTALLY DELUSIONAL"!!! "ACCOUNTABILITY"!!!, Is what I think America wants to see. These are not only corrupt journalist, they're just nasty ugly people. Just saying..........👣👍🇱🇷

Great video. Very informative. Lots of well rounded points. Lots of dots connected 👍 you got potential

Five will get you ten, she’s fired within the first year. It’s Trump’s thing. Said it yourself…😆😉

He learned the first time around there is no trial and error this time .. ;) she got this... And so does his whole cabinet. He knows it , we know it , they know it.

I knew a guy from my town who did not strike. He and a couple of other guys lived up in the control tower for several days Fearing retribution from his fellow striking members. He told me that he only had a few years to retirement And there was no way on God's green earth he was Going to do what he didn't think was right Let alone jeopardize his full retirement. He admitted that being an ATC could be very stressful at times But over all, it wasn't that bad! I don't blame him And I bet the few that remained on the job Were guys that were near retirement.

The strongest power of the worker is self determination

Currently working on my homework assignment in which I need to compare the pros and cons between traditional bail vs pretrial release. This video summarizes what I have been reading up on and places everything together, thank you!

History repeats.

Great video. Reagan made a bold move, but he had the law and the public behind him, so he acted. How in a world one of the great powers of the world, its government shutdown for lack of funds? It has happened many times, and I'l never understand it. Our government waste millions when in good times, then cries when they have to shutdown. Unreal.

This is insane. How are we still supporting this? It’s a fascist oligarchy that we live in not a democracy. Capitalism only gives representation and a voice for the rich not for anyone else.

Reagan created the Student Loan racket, spent hoards of money, and accelerated the decline of the middle class. What a legacy!

Air traffic control provide separation services on IFR/IFR flights, VFR Traffic advisories on a work load permitting basis, safety alerts

They got what they asked for and then got greedy and demanded hundreds of millions more after! They broke the law. He gave them a chance and they tried to call his bluff and he fired them. Plain and simple. He gave them 48 hours......more than I would have given that's for sure

if it can be done by using a phone then it fine to die out

I believe we want to avoid eggs that had chickens that were fed glyphosate

I didn't truly appreciate the structural obstacles the system has in place. But playing the devil's advocate, one can argue a big reason for strong US economic growth in the 80s, 90s and 00s was businesses being able to increase labor efficiency fairly ruthlessly being unshackled from union pressure. Re the video - fantastic overview and production quality. Honestly hugely impressive for a one-man gig. Keep grinding dude, the very deserved views and subs will follow.

REAGAN DESTROYED THE MIDDLE CLASS!!!!! SCAB PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!

The subsequent 40 years of low inflation after that was on the back of labor and increased automation. PATCO made Volcker's job of reducing inflation a lot easier. 2% mortgages of pre-2022 would not be possible with wage inflation like we have now in 2023 and 2024. I'm really glad to see much better union leadership utilizing strategies like CHAOS and the UAW's Shawn Fain targeting specific plants rather than a general strike. We just had a 3 day general strike and management offered nothing extra and promised the union they would not reimburse for the unpaid days from strike. Today the smart strategy is to get maximum pain from daily rotating strikes. Every day would have pain without management's ability to cover with scabs. Nobody can stay out for years like Eastern Airlines mechanics. That's a near certain road to poverty for strikers.

I supported PATCO. I wish the country would have shutdown in support. I believe we would be a better country if we had. Reagan used the military to break the strike. That was wrong.

Reagan used the military to break a strike. That put a death nail in the middle class. Unions built the middle class. Hopefully people are finally seeing with our strong unions the super wealthy are bleeding the working class to death.

So that is why your work is your life and you all work to death in this sick country..

There has never been a "basic human right" for controllers to strike. They did have a basic right to resign, however, and if they really were "principled," they would have. Their sense of self-importance was inflated and misplaced. It was like a mass psychosis, lemmings off a cliff. Among the most important of several factors they failed to take into account is that Federal bureaucracies are appallingly bloated. There were so many qualified controllers tucked away in offices, performing "administrative duties," pushing papers in an effort to move up the management ladder that, when they came out of the woodwork, and everyone was scheduled an extra day per week of overtime, there was something very close to a full workforce. Not only that, but without all the procedural red tape generated by those office jobs, necessary critical procedural changes were accomplished in record time. The tensions between management and the workforce disappeared as supervisors donned their headsets to control airplanes (non-striking controllers, who were grown-ups after all, successfully supervised themselves), and, though it eroded over time, there was an exhilarating camaraderie in the control facilities, and a great sense of everyone working together toward a common goal: to keep the public flying safely. It was the best of times.

except healthcare LOL

My parents were both fired in this strike. Afterwards other countries who were desperate for controllers made offers to hire controllers so they moved to australia with a handful of others. All but my parents eventually went back to the US or moved on to other countries but they stayed.

Video editing style seems its a VOX video.

purely from an economic standpoint - it could be argued that reagan's decision greatly emboldened businesses to take measures to improve labor efficiency, and this improved productivity helped power the significant US economic growth of the 80's and 90's

great video and summary of the topic. though i'm amazed there isn't a major feature film or even documentary on such an important moment in American labor history, and American history in general. the patco strike seems strangely neglected for such a seminal event

The strike was illegal, period. Regan had every right to fire them. Those are the facts. Being an Air Traffic Controllers is very stressful. Ronny did have a lasting effect on the federal employee retirement system for the worst possible effect. And the feds wonder why they can't hire and keep employees. The older federal retirement system, CSRS, verses FERS , the current system is not as good.

Fantastic summary of the PATCO strike. Subscribed

Since sanctions..... Russias economy has been number one in Europe. Trudeau and Biden merely fucked their own populations.....

🖕🏻 🇺🇦! 🇷🇺 Россия поступает правильно!

Let's stop wars not start them.

How in the world does this not have 000’s of views? I’m a regular consumer of historical longer form and this is as good if not better than anything else on YT! Well done

Trump 2024!

I seriously doubt that America using a fake wooden shekel as money is gonna be able to sanction a country that has currency backed by gold and silver. Good luck buddy.

How about changing course & ensure that those "sanctions" actually benefit the U.S. tax paying citizens, NOT the elite/military industrial complex & big pharma.
