The Path to Sustainable Economic Recovery November 2, 2009

Last week, we learned that the swift action by the President and Congress to pass an economic recovery package earlier this year helped stave off a global economic recession, put our economy back on the path of growth, and helped save hundreds of thousands of jobs.

SEIU was a major proponent of the economic recovery package and we believe we need to continue to make progress on a number of other economic initiatives to build long-term sustainable economic growth–these include passing meaningful financial reform, investing in green jobs, using public pension funds to build a 21st century infrastructure, and creating a new retirement system to protect our future.

Passing Meaningful Financial Reform

Anna Burger writes on New Deal 2.0 about the need to fundamentally change the way we value wealth and work in our country and act now on meaningful reforms to protect our families from future economic crises.

To build long-term economic progress we must:

-Create a strong Consumer Financial Protection Agency to serve as a watchdog against predatory and reckless banking products;

-Crackdown on out of control executive pay that rewards short term risks over long term results;

-End too big to fail once and for all by separating commercial banking from investment banking and raising capital requirements back to levels that promote safe and sound banks;

-Empower shareholders to act on executive pay and break the excessive power of executive-controlled boards; Force banks to expand lending to small businesses and state and local governments to create jobs and save critical services;

-Demand banks stop foreclosures and help families keep their homes;

-Reregulate the shadow financial markets–including derivatives, hedge funds and private equity; and Investigate, and if necessary prosecute, the big banks and Wall Street for crashing our economy.
In case you missed it–more than 5,000 Americans from 20 states–converged on the American Bankers Association convention in Chicago to demand banks stop fighting reforms that would help protect our families from future crises. It was the beginning of a national movement to hold banks and Wall Street accountable for their reckless behavior.

Direct quote from the SEIU bylaws.

We must organize unorganized Healthcare workers, extending to them the gains of unionism while securing control over the Healthcare industry.

Question: WHO Is In Charge of the White House? SEIU or Obama?"

Response: This question assumes that any person, firm or entity is in charge. There is not sufficient intelligence among those in the White House to take charge.

SEIU and everyone it touches need a Haitian-style shake up.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

From the Foundry:

The Service Employees International Union takes the top prize as President Obama’s favorite labor union. President Andy Stern and Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger have visited the White House nearly 60 times, including 11 meetings with Obama and another with Vice President Biden. - 58 total visits (27 by Stern and 31 by Burger)

Anna Burger with the SEIU is one of Obama’s most frequent visitors(31 visits)

They have not registered as lobbyists

Through billions of dollars in donations to a select group of Democratic Party-linked organizations, such as MoveOn and ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), and through his longstanding links to Service Employees International Union (SEIU) corporatist president, Andy Stern, Soros has established his financial and political control over the very grassroots apparatus that is supposed to give Obama the margin of victory on Nov. 4.

Indeed, Soros's Democracy Alliance is led by two leading figures in the SEIU/ACORN nexus. Anna Burger, the secretary-treasurer of the SEIU and chair of the "Change to Win Federation," Stern'ss labor-busting split-out from the AFL-CIO, is vice chairman of the Democracy Alliance. And Drummond Pike, the head of the Tides Foundation, and the longtime sponsor of former ACORN boss Wade Rathke, is the treasurer of Democracy Alliance. The Tides Foundation is an $80-million-a-year conduit of funds from wealthy donors, who wish to conceal their contributions to many of the very organizations now principally bankrolled by the Soros funding cartel. (Anton Chaitkin and Jeffrey Steinberg 10/08)

The Democracy Alliance. (Soros) has tentacles in all of this.
