    copier addict is off his communist rocker. Both he and SSG have a soft spot for communism. The same is true for the Trudeau family.


    There are 5 remaining communist countries in the world. Can anyone name them?

    Do any of them have these properties?

    Communism (from Latin communis, 'common, universal')[1][2] is a philosophical, social, political, and economic ideology and movement whose goal is the establishment of a communist society, namely a socioeconomic order structured upon the ideas of common ownership of the means of production and the absence of social classes, money,[3][4] and the state.[

    If not, then they are not true communist countries.

    Your refusal to accept the definition of communism does not make any difference. It does not change the fact that there are no true communist countries in the world, nor have there ever been.

    I'm glad I could clear that up for you.
    Now, let's get back to covid

    Try and tell Billy that. He refuses to accept the definition of communism.

    You're the same (liar) guy that tried to convince us that Antifa was a figment of our imagination. Now you're trying to convince us that there are no communist countries.

    Do you get a thrill up your leg for Fidel Castro like your dear leader, Trudeau, does?

    You left out the part about how there is no agreement as to how to achieve that goal. Until such time as they are able to control the entire world, each Communist country will continue the practice their own method of suppression of freedom. And that includes Canada.

    Sticking your head in the sand is not a valid discussion technique.
    You obviously have decided not to learn anything, so I will leave you in your echo chamber

    Boeing tells workers they must get COVID-19 vaccine
    The Associated Press
    3 mins ago


    FILE - In this Jan. 25, 2011, file photo, is the Boeing Company logo on the property in El Segundo, Calif. China's government said Monday, Oct. 26, 2020, it will impose sanctions on U.S. military contractors including Boeing Co.'s defense unit and Lockheed Martin Corp. for supplying weapons to rival Taiwan, stepping up a feud with Washington over security and Beijing's strategic ambitions. (AP Photo/Reed Saxon, File)

    SEATTLE (AP) — The Boeing Co. has told employees they must be vaccinated against COVID-19 or possibly be fired.

    The Seattle Times reports the deadline for workers at the aerospace giant is Dec. 8.


    “Compliance with these requirements is a condition of employment,” states a Boeing internal presentation from Tuesday viewed by the newspaper. “Employees who are unable to meet these requirements … may be released from the company.”

    Employees can request exemptions “due to a disability or sincerely held religious belief.” Any employee granted such an exemption will have to “undergo frequent testing for COVID-19” and be ready to “present a negative test result upon request.”

    The policy will apply to roughly 140,000 employees company-wide, with about 57,000 of those in Washington state.


    Jon Holden, president of International Association of Machinists (IAM) District 751, in his message to members in the October issue of the union paper, wrote that “the reality is our members are polarized on this issue.”

    “It is our responsibility to defend and advocate for all our members,” Holden added. And though he noted that he and his family are vaccinated, the union must also defend “those who can’t or won’t accept the vaccine.”

    The white-collar union, the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA), said in a statement Tuesday it is engaging with Boeing “to ensure implementation gives proper consideration to members’ concerns.”

    Boeing may face more resistance to the new policy in Republican-controlled states.

    On Monday, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued an executive order barring private companies or any other entity from requiring vaccines.

    Boeing has more than 5,000 employees in Texas. It has about 32,000 more at facilities in Alabama, Arizona, Missouri, Oklahoma and South Carolina.
