I don't follow politics much. My own leanings are pretty leftist on the economy but I tend to be conservative on social legislation. I saw a video of the President yesterday on youtube that I thought was interesting where he calls out the capitalists on their Right to Work legislation as giving people the Right to Work...for less money. For those of you who don't know, Right to Work laws remove the requirement that workers join unions and thus it is argued that they weaken unions in their collective bargaining attempts to acquire better wages and working conditions. I wonder if this is the first sitting president to call out big business on Right to Work legislation?
