Roughly 15,000 nurses in Minnesota walked off the job on Monday and joined the picket lines in what is believed to be the largest strike of private sector nurses in United States history.
The strike, which is expected to last three days, includes nurses from 16 hospitals in the Twin Cities area pushing for pay increases and staffing changes after contract negotiations between the Minnesota Nurses Association and hospital systems stalled. More
Fire all of them.
Wouldn’t walk off over the CoVid hoax or the Clot-Shots, though?
Nuthin like money to bring out the integrity!

izlamo delenda est …
Eff ’em.
Nothing more to say, except they are strong-arming the public with fear.
I’m thinking 15,000 nurses going on strike is a bad thing. On the flip side of the money issue is that these nurses are likely resident nurses of specific facilities and they are seeing “traveling nurses” coming in to supplement the nursing staff and making 2 or 3 times what the resident nurses are making. And these traveling nurses are only there for the money. When my wife was in the hospital recently you could see the difference in care that the resident nurses provided vs the traveling nurses.
^^^^I was going to say I had heard nurses are naming their own price these days.
Hire back all those nurses that were fired for not getting the jab. Offer them the wage you offered to these nurses.
Problem solved.
They fired the nurses who wouldn’t get the jab. Let these idiots strike until they fall over dead from the jab.
15 thousand nurses and only 10 thousand lakes? I’m going fishing.
“Patients before profits”, Obamacare fixed that. Profits before patient, is the rule now.
Healthcare was way cheaper before it was free.
The ones that walked off refusing the jab did the right thing…https://lewrockwell.com/
Bad link..see the site and click on “Data link revels disturbing facts about mRNA covid instability” At the bottom of the list.
Does anyone still trust these nurses or anyone in the medical profession now? Knowing what you know, and some of them didn’t fair too well after the jab. It will take me a long time – if ever to trust these so-called “professionals.”
Inflation is driving this. Does anyone really expect nurses or any other professionals to do the same work for less pay and less pay every month?
That’s what inflation is doing to destabilize society.
Every time employers have to raise wages, they have to either pass the cost on to customers, reduce staff or go out of business.
This is why high inflation fuels itself and keeps the cycle going until someone slams the brakes on the economy and crashes us into an even deeper depression.
Things are only going to get worse. Tighten the belt and make due with what you have because you’re not going to afford much more than the basics from this point on.

“Does anyone still trust these nurses or anyone in the medical profession now?”
I worked closely with nurses for years, learned from nurses, admired nurses, sweated and bled alongside nurses, and loved them to pieces.
That was then.
In latter days my faith in the medical profession in general and nurses in particular has been eroded, most severely a few years back when a grossly incompetent and extraordinarily cowardly shift in a surgical recovery ward in what was supposed to be a premier hospital forced me to save my own child’s life as he lay dying of anaphylaxis in a hospital bed while they waited for some permission from someone. I’ve documented the mechanics of this here before so I won’t reiterate, but it was only the first of many nursing disappointment I’ve had, and had this been a year later, I would have been excluded frim the hospital by Covid cowards and would have picked up a corpse the next morning instead.
The corporatization of nurses, like that of medicine in general, has made them slaves to procedure, to protocol, to worrying more about liability than lifesaving, and quicker to consult a lawyer than an attending.
No, I’m not going to say ALL nurses are like that. But a disturbing number of those that I’ve encountered, particularly in the Coof and post-Coof settings have been. I’ve seen them hide inside steel and Plexiglas barriers and just stick an arm out to take pointless temperatures in my factory; had them stick themselves instead of my wife when trying to apply a local anesthetic and run off without explanation, only to have someone else come back later to say he was scared and would she take an AIDS test so he’d calm down; had to talk them through gluing my own laceration once; and watching them run from Covid has been a sight to behold (one of my favorites was a nurse dropped her mask on the nasty hospital floor mouth-side down, pick it up, and put it back on, apparently more frightened of imaginary germs in the air than real ones on the ground); and other such too numerous now to catalog.
I don’t know what to make of the kids today. Not shy about nose jewelry, colored hair, or tattos in the ward, but seemingly shy about treating patients, I suppose they’ve had training far superior to mine but in their practice of medicine they do not seem to show it. I avoid doctors and hospitals like the plauge they fear ao much now, as they seem able to do little FOR me but seem a threat of what they may do TO me more than anything else, as anyone hit with intubation and RemDeathIsNear can tell you.
Joe Pedo Biden is not my doctor, nor is Anthony “Mengele” Fauci, but these days those seem to be the only sources of wisdom allowed in the hospital ward, and all bow and obey, nurses included.
Strike if you like, folks. I’ll take a hard pass either way, and stay as far from you as I can for as long as I csn, for none of you have given me any reason to believe it’s May best interests that drive your actions, and not those of you and your employer.
If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.
The root cause.
