That was my first thought too. Yet another reason to vote for Dems this November - only one party actually gives a shit about enforcing antitrust regulations!

are you absolutely positive the democrats give a shit about antitrust regulations? Biden did actively strike break.

  This is true, and it was a black mark against his record in my mind. But antitrust is not the same thing as pro-worker.

  He did at the beginning, but he helped them get what they wanted in the end, and I think that counts for something.
  
  “We’re thankful that the Biden administration played the long game on sick days and stuck with us for months after Congress imposed our updated national agreement,” Russo said. “Without making a big show of it, Joe Biden and members of his administration in the Transportation and Labor departments have been working continuously to get guaranteed paid sick days for all railroad workers.
  
  “We know that many of our members weren’t happy with our original agreement,” Russo said, “but through it all, we had faith that our friends in the White House and Congress would keep up the pressure on our railroad employers to get us the sick day benefits we deserve. Until we negotiated these new individual agreements with these carriers, an IBEW member who called out sick was not compensated.”

  Oh yeah you’re right we should just not even bother voting and let the right wing win.

    Where did I say that? Of course we should vote blue. But let’s not delude ourselves into thinking they already agree with us on issues we’re going to have to protest for.
