_Click here: The American Spectator : Unions to Get Yet Another Obamacare
Break?_
(http://spectator.org/archives/2013/09/03/unions-to-get-yet-another-obam)
The article say:
In fact, the Washington Times _reports_
(http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/aug/29/afl-cios-trumka-obamacare-still-needs-fixing/) that the
unions are openly complaining that some of the promises they were made in those
backroom deals have not been kept: “Several labor unions, including the
powerful Teamsters, penned letters last month accusing Democratic leaders of
breaking promises they made to unions in exchange for their support for Mr.
Obama’s signature law.”
And ties this to union campaign contributions and expenditures.
Why don't the critics of Citizens United rarely raise the fact that unions
also benefited from the decision and never support a law that would
restrict them, but only target corporations? I suspect a partisan motive here.
Ok, "reformers," is there a principled-based reason to reregulate
corporations, but not unions? If not, my suspicion must be right. Jim Bopp
