“Over the upcoming months, we will focus on answering those concerns that matter most to families,” says the task force Web site, called AStrongMiddleClass.gov. “What can we do to make retirement more secure? How can we make child and elder care more affordable? How do we improve workplace safety? How are we going to get the cost of college within reach? What can we do to help weary parents juggle work and family? What are the jobs of the future that we can begin to create?”

Obama's PAYBACK to UNIONS!!!

Let's make sure, freepers, we let them hear loud and clear just what Biden and Obama can do to help the middle class.

Obama wants to payback Unions for getting him elected let him do a donation run on one of his many websites. Workers do not need a middle person to take part of their wages they need to feed their families.

cns.com One way to encourage that give-and-take attitude is through employee involvement programs, where workers and supervisors sit down together to discuss ways to improve business. That’s exactly the sort of organization many employees want, but there’s a problem. Many such groups are illegal.

The law says workers may speak with employers through a labor union, or not at all. Any other form of dialogue between employee representatives and management (outside of collective bargaining) is banned.

That’s a mistake, especially since relatively few workers these days even want to be unionized. A 2006 Zogby poll found that 74 percent of non-unionized workers say they wouldn’t “personally like to be a member of a labor union.” Today only 20 percent say they would like to unionize. That’s down substantially from 1984, when about a third of non-union workers said they wanted to form a union.

In 1974, a quarter of private-sector workers were in unions. Today, only 7.5 percent are. What workers seem to want is a voice in how their company operates, without the confrontational attitude that so many unions bring to the table.

"I believe we have to reverse many of the policies toward organized labor that we have seen over the past eight years, policies with which I have sharply disagreed," Obama told a gathering at the White House.

Yeah like SEIU, a socialist group who got Obama elected. Unions love Obama because he believes in controlling everyone. Report back to me he will tell the Unions if anyone goes astray.

Obama’s PAYBACK to UNIONS!!!

Of course it , we all know he would try it. We now have Chicago and pay to play in the WH. But not for long, people are fed up, dissent is growing and they will make their voices heard in large numbers. It's coming. This is no time to sit back and brood. Write letters, make phone calls, protest, whatever it takes.
