Very good. When I first started reading it, I thought it was true. Most of it was so believable. But then I read "Union carpenters and electricians likewise out of work when the housing industry collapsed due to a lack of materials soon followed. Democratic politicians who rose to challenge and calm their ire, found themselves ejected from union halls." That cannot be true! The union carpenters and electricians would have picketed their former bosses, and sued to get their jobs back. Nevermind that the contractors were out of business. They could be forced to go back into business, give the workers a hefty raise, and pay reparations for time lost. Why would the union blame democratic politicians? That's just crazy talk! I'm pretty sure the rest of this story is true though.
