Joe Biden vows to 'rewrite our economy' for unions and working class
« on: July 09, 2020, 01:07:02 am »
 By Seth McLaughlin - The Washington Times - Wednesday, July 8, 2020

Joseph R. Biden said Wednesday that if he defeats President Trump in the November election that labor unions can count on him to champion their causes and rest assured they will have a seat at the table in the White House.

Speaking to the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), Mr. Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, said he would move to strengthen the rights of labor unions that President Trump and the GOP have tried to strip away.

“We are going to have a breathtaking opportunity to create good-paying union jobs and deliver the promise of America to Americans who have been denied it for much too long,” Mr. Biden told the group, which represents 750,000 workers across North America.

The Democrat party still believes our economy is 1952. If this gets enacted, we will see sluggish growth like we did during the Obama years and capital will leave the country

This is one of the things that sound good to the average person. But the law of unintended consequences always rears its ugly head in cases like this

Strip away the rights of labor unions?

What about the right of an employer to hire who they want, when they want and the right of an employee to decide to work for that wage or not?

Seems to me Rights belong to people.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Didn't Democrats already do this from 2007-2010 when they controlled both houses of Congress?

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
