Prior to this breakup, the AFL-CIO had a $125 million annual budget, spending only 10% on organizing (90% on administrative, lobbying, and campaign contributions to Democrats).

Only 10% on organizing, yet Sweeney wonders mindlessly why union membership went from 20% of the workforce in 1980 to less than 13% today.

You say that like unions shooting themselves in the foot is not a wonderful thing for society. Is this just another area where you are sadly misinformed?
