“labor leaders wrote, Obamacare would shatter not only our hard-earned health benefits, but destroy the foundation of the 40 hour work week that is the backbone of the American middle class.”
Kind of funny that unions thought they were special. That’s what all supporters of fascist governments think. At first. Stabbing supporters in the back when they are no longer useful is standard modus operandi for fascist governments.
Too bad government schools no longer teach history. It’s pretty much why we are doomed to repeat it in the U.S.
Still, I feel no sympathy at all for this bunch of useful fools. The unions are one of the big reasons we have fascists in charge right now, along with programs like Obamacare for the peasants, while the governing elite and their billionaire supports have all the health care they need. A lot like the old Soviet Politburo when you think about it. Oops, there’s some more of that history for you. Oh, and it turns out that union members are peasants too, they just didn’t know it until now.
This is what happens to all ‘useful idiots’ when they are no longer needed.
Keep that in mind next election, Unions.
