CA renter: Excellent post, yourself. Thanks for the props.
I think you make an excellent distinction, too, and that of the gulf between workers/employees and management/owners. I certainly don’t want to sound like a Marxist here, but our political “leaders” have either idly sat back and watched as America bled jobs and entire industries overseas or aided and abetted the effort.
Unfortunately, for all of his florid rhetoric to the contrary, Obama doesn’t appear any different. His ham handed approach to Chrysler shows exactly how wrong headed he is. To screw over the company bondholders while not allowing even a cursory review or discussion of the UAW collective bargaining agreement shows where his loyalties and his ideology remain.
