There isn’t a single ‘Teamster’s’ union official that EVER drove a truck! Hoffa wouldn’t even know how to open the door on one!
Michelle Malkin nails it! (as always)
While he rails against "special interests," Obama has zero to say about the executive orders he signed in the first days of his presidency to give unions a leg up. Executive Order 13502, for example, essentially forces contractors who bid on large-scale public construction projects worth $25 million or more to surrender to union representation for its employees. This codification of so-called project labor agreements significantly raises the cost of highway and school construction projects (by as much as 15 percent among California public schools, according to a new study by the National University System Institute for Policy Research).
So if Obama's "big" plan is more highway construction, he could recind EO 13502 and get a 15% boost in spending power.
