I think what bothers me the most is that they spent 100s’ of millions, if not billions buying their way into Washington. Now they are threatening incumbents they will pull their support for candidates that do not follow in lockstep. Where exactly are they getting this money...Maybe they pillaged the retirement accounts of their own. Perhaps they should have used all that money they are throwing around to shore up their retirement accounts? If I were a union member, I would be VERY upset.

...and this doesn’t begin to measure the trillions of paper gains, lost when the house of cards called “affordable housing” instigated or monsterized the recent crash of the economy, reducing by 30 to 50 percent, what the good people of the US had in their retirement accounts.

I'm not wondering.
