To show you how absurd the situation has become with the
NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD (NLRB) and their mission to allow unions to
organize businesses faster and without obstacles put up by private business,
they passed a ruling directing all private employers to post a poster where
workers can easily see and read it, informing their workers of their rights to
unionize and instruct them how to unionize.
The board’s main purpose is to investigate unfair labor
practice allegations by unions or workers. The board is obviously now a partner
of unions and will do anything to raise the number of union workers in the
private sector which now stands at below 7% of all workers in the private
sector and that number is falling fast.
The absurdity here is the naked abuse of power by the board
to further union goals by abusing the rights of private businesses.
It is as if the board is saying, we don’t give a shit about
job creation unless it is union job creation. Obama, by supporting the NLRB, in
essence, is saying the same thing.
Obama will propose a big highway and bridge construction
bill on Thursday to help create jobs. I am already hearing grumbling on the GOP
side because those construction jobs are slated only for union construction
workers and as such should not be allowed to pass unless all workers have a
fair chance at getting those jobs.
