USSC would not have issued a stay/hold if they didnt intend to sit and rule on the constitutionality of the whole deal.

Don't go counting your chickens.

Agreed.

And now, let us celebrate “activist” courts because they are saying something we agree with! Maybe.

I agree. To not have taken the case though would have been the Court’s imprimatur on the deal and the notion of stiffing secured creditors in favor of labor unions. I don’t think even Ginsburg would want their approval to be so blatant and obvious.

Nevertheless, it’s difficult for me to imagine that the Court would support the deal, but then I was wrong when I said the same thing about the Kelo case.

One thing is for sure: ostammer’s efforts to conquer the middle class by dividing it through preferential treatment and a spoils system is working. I just wonder how many of those Indiana cops and teachers and firemen invested in that pension plan holding the bonds are blaming union workers rather than ostammer. And I say that with the disclaimer that I despise labor unions.
