Truth Bomb by OVD: Happy May Day and how unions can save America

 Hey Everyone,

    So May 1st is International Workers day. This day celebrates all the sacrifices made to get workers rights from safety to pay. Most of this was done by Unions in the late 1800's and early 1900's. It's why you're enjoying this weekend off, 40 hour/5 day work weeks, 8 hour work days, min wage, overtime pay, vacations, and many more labor laws. Before those laws, the work conditions and "pay" were barely above slavery levels. American history doesn't teach much about this because it would inspire more Unions and better change...Like Norway and Sweden. Here's an article to get you started in learning how they beat the 1% in those Nations and now have the highest standard of living in the world.

Unions at this point might be the only way to save America besides violence and the chaos that goes with it. As both parties work for the 1% and election Law in America allows bribery(campaign contributions, super PAC's). It's why we don't have "Medicare for all" or Free education to PHD like many other Western Nations. It's why we need to Unionize and represent ourselves since the Government won't. 

Food for thought.

    Unions seem to be in decline in the US. That's bad for all workers. Although, I have to wonder about the police unions. They seem to protect cops who should be fired for cause.

      Police "Unions" are criminal enterprises in America. They cover for abuse and murder.

      Yeah, they keep bad cops on the job and all of society is diminished.

      They will always say "It's just a few bad apples" and I always reply "What happens when you leave a few bad apples in the barrel? They all go bad."

Truth Bomb By OVD : Ukraine (Proxy) War updaye

Image
 Hey Everyone,   So the war in Ukraine has been bloody but not much has happened the last month in regards to land controlled by either side. The HIMARS are doing serious damage to Russian command and supplies and they only have 4 of them. The Russians said they took them out but that has been proven to be a lie. The only reason Ukraine isn't dominating and taking their land back is the west isn't supplying enough. It's obvious the west IS considering this a Proxy war. That means their goal is to bleed Russia by keeping the war going. This is why the Ukrainians are not getting enough support. I warned of this but now it's clear that it is the case now.    There is talk of giving them 30 HIMARS and F-15's, F-16's, F-18's(Hornets are used by the USMC like the A-10's) and A-10's. But it's just talk and these will require training. Maybe next year is what I'm hearing. Thousands of Ukrainians will die because of these delay's. Also if the Repu

Truth Bomb By OVD: Ukraine war update

 Hey Everyone,   So the front lines haven't moved much but the fighting is fierce along the whole line. It's still winter but spring is around the corner so both sides are gearing up for spring offenses. The newly promised Tanks from the west still haven't arrived and there isn't enough of them to make a difference. The Russians are losing thousands of Troops but their real purpose will be seen soon enough. You have to understand Russian war doctrine to see what the real Russian plan is. So lets talk about that. The Russians throughout history have used the same playbook. They invade or instigate a war thinking they will win fast. Then they lose badly as their forces are poorly trained and corruption ensures they are poorly equipped. They respond just like they are now by conscripting massive amounts of men and plugging the holes and holding the line. The second unsaid part of that is these conscripts are also being used to keep pressure on their enemy and use up their

Truth Bomb by OVD : Personal update

 Hey everyone,   If anyone is even still reading this...My feeling of isolation is getting bad. Really bad. Being cut off from Facebook was bad enough. I haven't heard from a lot of friends from real life for more than a year now. Twitter helped and I made some new friends and was able to connect to a bunch of fellow Veterans. That's gone now too. So now I kind of drift from day to day with little to no contact with the outside world. It's demoralizing to say the least. I'm down right depressed and don't see any future for myself anymore. I've always been a very social person and now I have no way to reach anyone but this and the numbers of people that even read this anymore has dwindled to a couple. Soon I'll probably stop bothering with this either.    My pain levels are through the roof. I got only an hour of sleep last night(and why I'm typing this at 5 am. Pain meds and pot cookies combined didn't help. My left leg is now starting to get as bad
