a labor movement that's fighting back uh against the boss and winning and so one of the number one things that the teamsters union can do to jumpstart organizing your amazon is to have a very militant and very public uh contract campaign to reverse the give backs at ups and if that takes a strike uh so be it and that's the position that the teamsters united uh leadership took during the campaign and we agree with it NUMBER_TOKEN it's just if you wanna it's very difficult to organize uh new members when you're selling out the ones you already have and and that era is over in the team should you got it what you just said is really important that um the new leadership ran directly on will strike ups if necessary my understanding is that contract is up what in two years if there was a strike of course nothing is inevitable and strikes are you know very difficult on the workers that are involved but if that were to happen what would that mean for the country um obviously as we've all moved to online shopping ups and other carriers are extraordinarily integral to our national economy so what could that look like well and i think that that's one of the things that makes this um such an important opportunity not just for working teamsters but for all of labor unlike other unions that have really been weakened by globalization teamsters teamster jobs cannot be outsourced you can't outsource package delivery or garbage collection or freight or rail those jobs by food distribution those jobs by def definition have to be done here the teamsters is a logistics union um and so it is right at the heart of the american economy and it has the power potentially uh both to move um the u.s economy or uh to hamper it or shut it down and i think one of the things that's happened over the pandemic is that uh essential workers have come to see and feel uh the power that they have in a way in ways that are really really important and they're pretty tired of being told that they're essential and treated like they're disposable and i think that that's fueling some of the anger we're seeing i think that's absolutely right well we really appreciate you joining us to update us thanks very much congrats david come back and keep us updated thank you absolutely thank you so much absolutely thank you guys so much for watching we really appreciate it we just you know appreciate all of your support i just checked right before this and it looks like crystal that chris cuomo segment that we did yesterday was went ahead and not suitable for all advertisers which is just kind of amazing can't report on cnn literally firing uh chris cuomo because of what they claim is their you know me too policy but as i pointed to how are we supposed to cover in the news you know and have an incentive to do so the way is the way we have an incentive is because we rely on you guys for the primary source of our revenue not on youtube so if you can't help us out premium link is there in description of course you get all sorts of benefits but that's really what you're helping us fight against we give you the best show possible regardless of whether we're gonna make money on it on youtube or not yeah it's insane that you can't even mention me too either with regard to allegations or talking about something that has been an incredibly
