To Obama the Only Good Job is a Union Job

The GOP is hitting back at Obama's war on non-union jobs:
This week Congressional Republicans are scheduled to hold hearings over a brazen assault on private industry by President Obama’s labor union board, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The NLRB, which is controlled by Democrats, filed a lawsuit attempting to prevent Boeing from building its new line of planes in Right-to-Work South Carolina that would have created 1,000 new manufacturing jobs in one of the states hardest hit by the Obama Economy. With national unemployment ticking up to 9.1 percent and long term joblessness at record levels, one might think President Obama would jump at the opportunity to boost job creation before an election that will be a referendum on his handling of the economy. Not so. Unfortunately, for Barack Obama and his union bosses not all jobs are created equal.

This is the latest example of executive overreach from an Administration that has been flexing its regulatory enforcement muscles in an effort to benefit labor unions allies which form the core of Obama’s reelection effort. At the heart of the matter are federal Right-to-Work laws, which allow states like South Carolina to ban the practice of forcing workers to join and support a union as a condition of being hired. And with such a key Democrat political constituency in decline and lukewarm enthusiasm coming from labor leaders, this Administration has made Right-to-Work a top political target ahead of what is guaranteed to be a very tough campaign for the President.
There's more at the link. Obama would rather see you working as part of a faceless union mass rather than being creative and entrepreneurial. Masses are more easily controlled.
