The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.Paul Tritto has worked at Stop & Shop for 18 years. On April 11, he walked off his job with more than 30,000 of his colleagues at more than 240 of the chain’s stores in New England.

Tritto, who works at the company’s store in Somerville, Massachusetts, said that under the proposed changes to his health care plan, his out-of-pocket maximums will go up, making the cost “astronomical.” Knuti said 75 percent of workers at Stop & Shop are part time, working multiple jobs and barely “cobbling together” a living wage.While Stop & Shop is proposing slight hourly wage increases , changes to out-of-pocket maximums and increases in premiums make the raise negligible, workers say.

What a bummer. The media now a 'front group' and virtual PR Firm for commie unions. The 'Unholy Alliance' of the media and Democratic Socialist Party who now shill exclusively for terrorists, commies and everyone who hates America.

These hack 'reporters' will never do any 'investigative reporting' and find out exactly who these union people are. Just like Obummer. A full blown Marxist with 'heroes' who were card carrying communists. The media doesn't care. It's all about leftist propaganda.

Today's unions, especially the 'teachers' unions are full blown Marxist/Communist. My dad was vice pres. of Communications Workers years ago here in Berdoo, CA. during the 'Big Strikes' with General Telephone where he worked for 30-plus years. That was a real 'labor' union.

I cant imagine a world, besides being in management where I would work at a grocery store for 30 years.
