Page 887 of their latest catalog... https://catalog.uline.com/Fall-Winter-US-2024/887/
They've done this before too, taken up space in their catalog to push for destructive/conservative policies.
If you're in a position where you can choose which supplies-company to buy from for yourself or your employer, even if you don't buy a lot, every little bit of money that the Uihlein family doesn't get is less money they can use to push this kind of trash.

Thats far more mild than I expected from Uline tbh. I mean, its dog whistling for sure, but I expected it to be more overt.
JesaraB
LMAO, Republicans for fewer regulations? (that protect you, way more on everything that could possibly punish you including restricting the right the travel, mandatory menstrual monitoring, and more)
DJOldguy
When was the last time a Republican President balanced the budget? Eisenhower, 1957... Largest Deficits Obama and Trump, but in their defense, Obama had Reagan's banking bullshit to deal with and Trump had both Covid and his tax cuts to deal with.
WeCanDoBetter9
Republicans - “Domestic energy production”… like solar, right?…
Far-Right Conservatives - “Return to law and order”… really? With cultish support of a serial felon?
darkstarmc
Higher *income* higher taxes?

This reads like a mad lib. "Buy from our shipping company. We know (British rock band). We sure do hate (football player). What could be worse than (threatening non-white country)(non-white country I look down on)? (Grammatical error).
Hovencl00f
These people are fools. Trump has proved that he cannot run the country. he s a criminal and belongs in prison.
joechristo
We here at Uline agree to forego wage increases in favor of a massive donations to Republican hacks to grant us a obscene pass through tax breaks which lets us put more cash into our own pockets.

Sorry America, it’s getting harder and harder for the world ro respect you. What a horrible horrible people you are tending to have…

The Uihleins are also ceaseless contributors to Heritage, the lovely people behind Project 2025, and other far-right propaganda mills.

LAW AND ORDER for the far right?!? LMAO

When ever someone brings up taxes, I will straight up ask them what tax bracket they are in before continueing any conversation. The people who do answer, my favorite thing is to just say that will not effect you when they are screaming about their taxes going up when the super rich get taxed
The701
And then see if they have any understanding of how progressive tax brackets even work.

Oh no! They don’t want a prison industrial complex built off the backs of minor drug offenses!

I work for a large company. We have to order 100 55 gal drums at a time, pallets full of floor dry, lots of different products and uline is a monopoly. I used to order reconditioned pallets from a trusted place, guess who bought them out.I wish we could order elsewhere, but with volume sales and their inventory, they have no competition. It makes me sick to have to use them.
talacyd
Have you looked at W. W. Grainger or McMaster-Carr? Both of them have the items you mentioned – though they only have plastic pallets and I have no idea how they compare on price. I have no affiliation; they’re just the companies that a former colleague preferred.
pintgudge1975
We do use Grainger for some stuff, but yeah, a plastic vs a wooden doesn’t work.
I don’t get to choose, I’m just the guy who uses the stuff.
Some suit who never gets their hands dirty chooses the stuff because they must be much smarter than me!
TheCunningLinguists
I hate Uline, and stopped using them for my shipping supplies when I learned how awful they are.
wadatahmydamie
I talked my old boss out of using them. He was an extremely racist southern grandpa, so I didn’t approach it ideologically, I just told him he could save money and get better stuff by using local suppliers, and offered to handle the order coordination myself

"Return to law and order?" That means putting the 34x felon behind bars, right?
The701
Ryyyyyyyan
I am in charge of ordering supplies for my company. I've made the switch from Uline to WBMason for all our shipping boxes. And it's cheaper too, because WBMason runs their own truck and Uline charges a huge amount for shipping. Still looking for a good source for the one-off large industrial items, like pallet jacks and other warehouse equipment.
talacyd
Have you looked at W. W. Grainger or McMaster-Carr? They’re the industrial suppliers that a former colleague preferred. (I have no affiliation with either of them; I did make a similar reply to another commenter here.)

If you think that's "far left" then you're an American.

Not a progressive one.

TheMomaw
That infographic is pretty inaccurate. Republicans don't want to "reform" education, they want to privatize it and pay in stolen taxes so they can indoctrinate children to be good little pseudo-christians using YOUR money. They don't want "law and order", they want a police state where the commoners live in fear and the elite face no consequences. "Fewer regulations" is accurate, except they're regulations that reduce corruption and environment damage.
fartharder
That's aquite a reform
Feralkyn
Yeah "reform" got me too. Like, no, they want to fucking remove that shit.
BHPaperstacks
Fewer regulations also means fewer protections for workers.
historycat
Secure borders, law and order, immigration reform.
Saying the same thing in 3 different code words shows how few ideas they have.
Also "Higher income, Higer taxes" and "Lower inflation, Lower Taxes"? Bullshit.
Yeah, highest income should pay more taxes. Harris is planning on tax cuts for the lowest 95%.
The Republican side left out "lower wages"
svga
still accurate republican talking points though; she's not hiding the ball
dbbbbs
“Law and order” would want convicted 34 count felons to go to prison shouldn’t it?
BHPaperstacks
I hate it when dipshit say things like the top 1% pay like 50% of all income taxes. With no context, it sounds like they're carrying us, but when you factor in that, they make like 80% of the money you realize it's bullshit, especially since they make most of that money by underpaying for labor anyways.
fake40nedeso
I find the comparison amusing. Maybe it's that english isn't my mother tongue, but 'less regulations' (right) is more or less the same as 'more rights' (left). Or do I have to read this as the neo-liberal, parasitic "regulations"? However – that's the amusing part – the right wants to regulate pretty much everything which defines what a person is (directly and indirectly), especially women. While disregarding international laws and treaties (human rights anyone?!).
modus0
The right typically means less regulations for *companies*, but not for *individuals* (specifically the poor, non-white, and female). Things like less regulations on toxic waste disposal, recycling requirements, pollution reductions; all things that cost companies money to take care of, which means less money for the executives and shareholders.
evilspock
"Return to law and order" my left testicle.
Do they talk to their mother or pray to baby Jesus with that lying mouth?
TheVampireDante
"Their law, by their order" is more accurate.

Your right to vote is a tremendous inconvenience to them
Lugh314159
I mean... they're not wrong. People started talking about the 2024 election in January of 2020. They were asking Bernie Sanders if he would run against Joe Biden HOURS after Biden had won in 2020. I would LOVE to see elections that only lasted a few months every four years.
beoluves
That is a call for a God Empreror.
HandoB4Javert
Corrodias
It means that they think that in the past, people would only pay attention to "politics" for a few months every 4 years, or, if they were particularly invested, every 2 years, but now one can't ignore it between elections.
KerryCoder
This is actually a legitimate comment, though. Campaigning has become endless - JD Vance, for example, hasn't cast a single vote in the senate - his JOB - while he's campaigning. Trump has been running non-stop for President since January 20th, 2021 - four years.
Part of this is the 24 hour news cycle, part of it is fixed election terms (In the UK, for example, elections can be called at any time, and there is a clear delineation between "goverment time" and "campaign time")
micuu
JD Vance could have made time for votes. Trump could have done something else. The problem is they don't care about anything but gaining power, so they made that choice.
jakedafish
I’d say trump has been non stop campaigning since 2015. He never stopped in officer.
Corrodias
Indeed, I don't think they're entirely wrong about that. It's still worse in the "on" years than in the "off" years, but it's kind of overwhelming to be subject to so much advertising all the time.

If you live in a "Battleground State" we haven't had a break in political ads for over 5 years.

I just got their catalog in the mail. In the trash it goes.
wadatahmydamie
Call them and ask them not to send you any more.
Kinkyboinick
nah, make them pay and just recycle it, at least someone else benefits from them wasting their money! Ideally local printers, mail carriers, etc...fuck the company, abuse their resources

Let’s not be hasty. Can you recycle it?

They lied to doctors telling them that certain opioids were not addictive and they were a new type of pain relief, and triggered the opioid epidemic in which the Department of Justice has said they cannot find fault with the actual family. So they pretty much got away with some particularly evil shit.
turdferguson74
Sacklers are the family that introduced OxyContin to the world and pushed sales reps to recklessly push more and higher doses

Single handedly created the opioid epidemic for profit
