Biden Thinks Unions Will Help the Middle Class…!?
Moron Alert! Joe Biden thinks unions will help the middle class and possibly cure the ailing economy.
Vice President Joe Biden, making a renewed pitch for a major change in labor law, told union leaders Tuesday that the best way to rebuild the middle class is to help labor unions grow.
Biden said it’s time to “level the playing field” for unions by passing a bill that would make it easier for workers to organize.
“You’ve got to climb up a hill with so many roadblocks on the way to organize that it’s just out of whack,” Biden told a conference of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has about 1.6 million members.
“If a union is what you want, then a union is what you should get,” Biden said.
The Employee Free Choice Act — also known as “card check” — is organized labor’s top priority this year, but business groups are adamantly opposed. It would allow a majority of workplace employees to sign cards to join a union instead of holding secret ballot elections.
This is just idiotic. We are supposed to believe that unions, one of the major causes of the auto industry downfall, will actually help the economy and put more money into the hands of the middle class? Unions have been incredibly corrupt once they came to power and held more sway up on Capitol Hill. Even employees that are supposedly protected by unions get used and abused in order for the union leaders to gain more power and control. Unions suck money out of companies because of strict contractual agreements, huge benefit packages, protection from getting fired, major pay rates, etc. If private companies are forced to accept union labor, they will move to other countries to conduct business. The United States, IIRC, is the only country that has unions. When auto industries conduct business in other countries they are actually profitable because there are no unions in those factories. Other companies will escape overseas, so if Biden wants to level the playing field, as he puts it, and not completely demolish the U.S. economy, then he will have to figure out a way to enforce union labor on places like India, China, Brazil, etc. FAT CHANCE – Good one Joe… But then again, we already know that you and your Democrat cronies are all in the pockets of the Unions.
Hooked on ‘Fonics’ ‘Werked’ For Me!: Biden Press Office Misspells Biden and Wilmington
Joe Biden’s press office flubbed some of the spellings on one of his press releases… The gaffes of the vice president never end!
Usually his press people have to send out a statement clarifying what the vice president meant. On Monday, they had to send out an email clarifying what they meant.
But it was only a minor mistake. Like the city where the vice president was going. And the vice president’s name.
Subject
“Vice President Buden Kicks Off $32 Million Renovation and Restoration of Wilimington Train Station,” reads the subject line.
Joe Biden could not be reached for comment; he was busy preparing for his next Swine Flu escapade:
WHO Confirms Only 10 Deaths from Swine Flu…
The World Health Organization said on Friday that as of 0600 GMT the number of officially confirmed cases of a new flu sweeping around the world was 331 in 11 countries, including 10 deaths.
The figures for what the WHO calls influenza A (H1N1), widely known as swine flu, include 109 confirmed cases with one death in the United States and 156 confirmed cases with nine deaths in Mexico, it said in a statement on its website.
Other countries with laboratory-confirmed cases are Austria (1), Canada (34), Germany (3), Israel (2), Netherlands (1), New Zealand (3), Spain (13), Switzerland (1) and United Kingdom (8).
Other estimates of infection are higher. For instance Mexico says up to 176 people have died there and the authorities have confirmed 12 deaths.
Everybody run for the hills and panic just like Joe Botox Biden told us to do! LOL!
On a side note, I will be purchasing the the latest in influenza wear at irinablock.com. “Pimp my flu mask!”
Joe Biden (A.K.A Chicken Little) Says Don’t Ride the Subway and Don’t Use Airplanes
Hey New Yorkers, take a cab to work today. Or walk.
Your Vice President Joe Biden says you should avoid both planes and subways.
NBC New York: “I would not be at this point … [be] suggesting they ride the subway,” Biden said when asked whether he would advise family members to use public transportation.
Biden made his comments during a brief interview on NBC’s “Today” show during an interview with Matt Lauer.
The vice president said if one person sneezes on a plane “it goes all the way through the aircraft.”
Biden said the advice to his family differs from that of the federal government’s to the public because, “That’s me.”
But you know, that’s Joe Biden for ya! Always running his mouth, saying what’s on his mind. So charming.
