Obamacare has nothing to do with care
Obamacare is nothing but a push to create a public union behemoth. Health and care is the last thing that Obama is concerned with.
“It is clear that Big Labor is banking on the probability that all healthcare workers eventually become federal, state, and municipal healthcare employees,” Loos told Factor. That, he said, would make them eligible for involuntary unionization through public-sector unions like AFSCME and the SEIU.
“Obamacare is an SEIU and AFSCME membership ‘net,’” Loos claimed, “designed to eventually capture 21 million forced-dues paying government workers.” New health care jobs created by Obamacare, he said, will eventually be filled by “federal, state, and municipal healthcare employees.”
The Obamacare law, once fully implemented, will dramatically increase the number of health care workers receiving payment for their services through government programs, including Medicaid and so-called “public option” government-run insurance plans.
“The government employee unions can then enlist pro-union state governments to treat these health care workers as ‘government employees,’” Factor told The Daily Caller, “and unionize them just like they unionized the care providers” themselves.
“For every million additional health care workers unionized in the 27 non-right-to-work states,” he told TheDC, “the unions stand to earn $1 billion in dues.”

Obamacare is an oxymoron; it has nothing to do with care, and everything to do with Obama.

Power and control.
Union tribute buys a lot of both.

It never was about healthcare. It has ALWAYS been about power.
Government workers have absolutely no business being unionized. In addition to the many clusterfucks that Oblowme has created that need to be repealed or dismantled, Romney needs to begin the push for eliminating public sector unions at some point in his first term.

Well, we all knew it had nothing to do with health or care, but I really didn’t see the union angle.
Makes perfect sense, though – seeing the hardcore socialism / nazism / unionism nexus.

And we’ll probably have to pay for a horseshoer.

true story.
my daughter worked one summer full time at the del mar fair. all fairworkers hired must pay into the seiu coffers. her first paycheck of $100.00 had half withheld for her plastic nametag. money was collected by seiu. i figured that seiu collected about $10,000.00 from seasonal employee checks for that and every year. i contacted the fairgrounds board president. told him that i was the parent of a minor employee, that the charge of a nametag should not be borne by the employee but is a cost of doing business. and that i expected her next paycheck to have that charge be reversed. it was.
