SEIU striker confronts neo-con Fresno Co Board of Supervisor Phil Larson.. the lying liar




The Central Valley of CA has been run by Neo Con jerks for the last 30 years.. It birthed the Freepers.
The only talk radio, KMJ, is ultra Hate Radio brainwashings the public in the past 30 years.

Brave SEIU members (mostly women) are fighting back on a 3 day strike against 9% tax cuts.

Local News spins the news in favor of Conservative Board of Supervisors.

But video captures a striking SEIU worker confronting Grumpy Obnoxious Old Man Board of Supervisor Phil Larson


1. Larson claims picketers were bussed in for the strike (absolutely not true). His proof, he said was there were more people on the picket line than people missing work. News flash, Phil, the Kerman office was shut down Monday because nobody came to work.

2. Larson corrects Kevin when Kevin says he (Larson) makes $105,000.
Larson: "I make $107,000."

3.Larson claims workers got a 31 percent increase over the last five years.
Not anywhere close, Phil. Workers got, from 2006 to 2010, six increases, of 3.5, 2, 3.5, 3, 3 and 3 percent. Compound that and it totals 19 percent. Once you factor in massive increase in health care contribution, the second tier of retirement, and two years of furloughs, the 19 percent on paper was even less than in workers' paychecks.

Maybe if Phil spent his afternoons working for his salary instead of having coffee with his friends, he'd understand what's really going on in Fresno County.

This mature Social worker should be in a debate with BOS Larson.

She would really expose what a jerk he is.

County dismisses workers’ importance, but on-the-ground testimonials reveal true impact
FRESNO—As Fresno County workers head back to their jobs Thursday, they’ll remember the outpouring of public support. And they’ll know that despite misrepresentations from the county, the three-day strike unquestionably showed the community the value of public services—especially when qualified staff is not there to provide them.
The county has steadfastly followed its prewritten script, claiming that the walkout of 2,000 workers for three days had no impact on county services. In fact, client testimonials and stories leaking out from sympathetic county personnel show otherwise.Yet county officials maintained that no services were compromised. In a statement of cluelessness, Supervisor Phil Larson claimed Monday that the absences were no greater than a normal workday, even as he sat 100 yards from the Kerman office, which was closed and locked because all the workers were outside picketing.The strike ends tonight at 10 p.m., when juvenile corrections officers will report to work. Members of the bargaining team will attend a mediation hearing Thursday, and then consider what to do next if the county continues to insist it won’t come back to the table.
