Of courses, they already fixed health care so now labor laws are next:
“if you like your doctor you can keep him”
“If you like your policy you can keep it”
“If you like your job (minimum wage bill) you can keep it”
Using the same logic that was used against Ted Cruz and Mike Lee.....since there are not votes in the House to pass ANY of this, aren’t they wasting their time??
The Democrats would save the country a lot of money by just appointing commissars to run every business in America.
Get the media running full force on the next issue to stop the bleeding of the last.

B-b-b-but this is different, of course... To the leftists (as part of their Marxist faith), Cruz had a bad "intent"- protecting evil "profit-seeking companies and the rich". The leftists, of course, always have a noble intent in whatever they pursue. The fact that their plans often fail miserably (The Great Leap Forward, for instance) is irrelevant.
They shoved sodomy down our throats last night too.
Government regulations is even a better solution... every business essentially has some set of government bureaucrats carrying out regulation edicts, beholden basically to the government by law, but paid on the company dime.
USSR here we are! (in a more stealthy way, of course)
BOTH parties need to stand up strongly, and advocate for the return of America jobs.
Not union, but American.
Bring back American jobs now.
OK...the article states this is basically a sop to their base to encourage/distract them as the Obamacare debacle continues to unfold. So it’s all for show.
Millions of Americans are losing their health insurance plans jobs homes savings the Party That Cares indeed.
