That's a hell of a speech. Unions (and Henry Ford) built the middle class.

Public-sector union, now that’s another animal.

A case can be made that it’s an unethical animal.

“The public sector is financed by taxes, making public sector unions able to play both sides, demanding pay raises and approving pay raises. Union dues from employees (via deduction from their paychecks) provide a steady flow of income which is spent lobbying government. Unions employ their considerable lobbying power (their raison d’être} to influence politicians, who raise the necessary funds via taxation, which provides more money to hire more public employees (and additional votes supporting union-backing politicians), thereby growing and increasing the cost of government. The cycle persists and is a (the?) major cause of our current financial crisis.”

yes they did. too bad the unions are now dead, and all we have since 1980 is trickledown (no trickle BTW), a shrinking middleclass (1/2 the size it was when there were unions), and the oligarchy 1-percenters.

but i guess you are fine with that - being a believer in trickshit - i bet you think the middle class is a big as it was 40 yrs ago (and not 1/2 the size).

whatever bubba.

Unions built the middleclass 70 yrs ago, not Henry Ford - he was a white suppremist ass.

if you wish to look toward an industrialist hero, don't look to that dick, look toward the PT boat builder in Louisiana (sorry i do not rem his name - just do a google/view docs about him on YT) - built his boats to defeat Nazis and Japs.

do not like to Ford!!!!!! for christ's sake!
