Once a precedent is set - it cannot so easily be unset. If marxist democrats indeed create the precedent - that the executive branch can break a private contract - could not the executive branch break a union contract?

For that matter, all union contracts in America?

Especially say, if American businesses are in danger, due to costly union expenses and stupid rules...

Sorry, two wrongs don’t make a right.

Republicans should not break contracts between private employers and unions. If the contracts are too onerous, the companies will go bankrupt. What the government should not do is step in to subsidize companies with uncompetitive labor agreements, as it is doing with General Motors.

Interesting...hubby and I were talking about that exact thing last night after watching Geithner talk about changing everything about how we do business in the financial sector.

No one even mentions the car manufacturers anymore and all the money they got, and the fact that it was unsustainable union contracts that eventually made them go broke.

All this talk about AIG bonuses is ridiculous.

What “next GOP admin?”

Our current masters are intent on there being no “next admin” at all.

They may be right.
