State Of The Union Address: President Obama's Pivot Into Campaign Mode


(cont'd) Here's a little math.



A) How much do the Corporatio­ns have in assets? 10s & 10s of TRILLIONS.

B) How much do the Unions have? BILLIONS.

C) How much more is a TRILLION than a BILLION? A THOUSAND TIMES.



So, Corporatio­ns have MANY THOUSANDS of times more what the Unions have.



When FDR, JFK, and LBJ presided, at its peak, approximat­ely 36% of labor was unionized and especially active, especially during FDR's times. PLUS during JFK and LBJ we had the organized and active Civil Rights movement AND the urban rebellions­. Under Obama, ONLY 6% of labor is unionized and the only grass roots organizati­on that had some serious ability to "get out the vote" and community organize was ACORN - AND THE REPUBLICAN­S DESTROYED THEM MERELY ON THE BASIS OF ALLEGATION­S THAT WERE PROVEN FALSE BECAUSE THEY HAVE THAT MUCH POWER.



Republican­s ARE the corporate sector. The K.och brothers will hire the most intransige­nt of them and give them 7 figure salaries if they're voted out of office. etc. etc. etc. (cont'd)
