Obama beat the 47 percent guy and the trend suggests that a socialist will become President,as he is about to surpass the super rich Hillary, and he leads the even richer Trump. In general election match ups. Do you admit that you were grossly exaggerating the impact of that decision?
Because I still think it was a bad decision- neither Corporations or Unions should be allowed to donate unlimited amounts of money.
Progressives will find some way to exempt Unions from any controls, don't you know that?
"We don't hate speech, we hate YOUR speech"
Conservatives will find some way to exempt Corporations from any controls, don't you know that?
I don't see conservatives trying to stop unions from spending money.
Now we do see them trying to stop unions from getting money from people who don't want to pay it.
Any form of campaign finance reform will be tailored to help the side making the laws, and hurt the side not in power.
you're kidding, right?
no... they just try to stop unions from GETTING money or having any collective bargaining power.
That's what I said partially in the bolded line.
Most conservatives are against closed shops in general, and public unions as a whole. Even FDR thought public sector unions were a terrible idea. I am not against the idea of unions, they are useful and needed in the private sector in some fields, but public sector unions are terrible.
