Unions used to be notoriously linked to the DNC at the hip as they fought for special perks for their workers. However, one of the key points they fought was health care, giving many of their members Cadillac health care plans with private insurers.
However, now that the DNC has gone full socialist and want socialized health care that will cause these union members to take a cut in their level of coverage while making their costs go up, I no longer believe they are linked at the hip. Now they are flat out adversaries.
I think the democrats will have to do what Obama did to sell his health care plan, just lie to people saying that their health care rates won't increase and they can keep the same health care plans and doctors. Even at that, union were given special perks under Obamacare. I suppose they might consider giving the special perks under a socialized system as well.
