Oh no it is the end of civilzation if the Employee Free choice act is passed
Source: huffington post

at least according to the co-founder of Home Depot, B of A put on conference call to strategize how to defeat the bill, doing this right after recieving billions in bail out money

the best part is one of them say's "This bill may be one of the worst things I have ever seen in my life," he said, explaining that he could have been on "a 350-foot boat out in the Mediterranean," but felt it was more important to engage on this fight.


It is all on audio at Huffington post

2. How many jobs
did Home Depot lose yesterday?

Obviously, the guy's a real pro where business and the needs of employees are concerned.

Right.

I swear, I am starting to feel more and more like one of the peasants who got the French Revolution going. Every day, these CEO assholes are pissing me off worse than they did the day before.

3. Here's proof of the class war waged by corporations. Note the date of the conf. call--Oct 08!
This means that corporate America was planning at least in October 2008 to counter this,
and so ask yourselves: are the layoffs a 'pay back' for the election of Obama?

I say: yes, its payback and so is the corporate banking raid on the Treasury,
which is sanctioned by Congress.

Congress is working with the banks to kill off the working class of America, there's
no longer any doubt.

When will American working people get it: Our government is waging war on the
working class, along with corporate America.

We need to put 2 million in the streets of DC, to visit the Capitol to ask Congress,
why they are enabling the demise of working class America.

Enough is enough. Sit on the sidelines at your peril America.
