(32,324 posts)If they can talk about unions, then they can talk about jobs, I imagine.
Because after all, having unions without jobs is a ridiculous concept.
It is rather like having a cart without a horse.
But the Democratic Neo Con Leadership is not about jobs. Those people are in fact continually pursuing policies that decimate small businesses, which happens to be the source where right now, most jobs are created for the work force.
Try dealing with the ACA if you are a small business. Try dealing with employment laws. Try dealing with any of a number of matters, if you' re small you get crushed. Look at how the Democratic Majority in Spring 2007, turned the US Postal service over to Amazon, while forcing the smaller businesses to pay more for shipping.
That had a huge negative effect on my business. Huge. Not only do we now pay more for shipping,we cannot sell our product without going through Amazon. After all, why would anyone order books from our website and then pay for shipping if they can order our books from Amazon and have free shipping?
