He outlined five main tenets of the Second Bill of Rights, which would include the “right to full employment and a living wage”; the “right to full participation in the electoral process”; the “right to a quality education”; the “right to a voice at work” and the “right to a secure and healthy future.”

The idea of a Second Bill of Rights was inspired by President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 1944 State of the Union address, which called for greater “economic rights” including employment through a living wage, collective bargaining, housing, education, medical care, among many things.

I believe that Unions have a legitimate role; but reshaping Constitutional Government is certainly not one of them. Mr. Trumka is effectively proposing a communist society--replacing the squirrel as an object lesson for our youth-- being taught to labor & store fruits of labor for future needs--with the equivalent of some intestinal parasite, drawing its subsistence, involuntarily, from an invaded host.

This is the exact opposite of the ethos that once made America the envy of the world. It is the hopelessly flawed theory of entitlements that destroys character & subverts a social order. (See, for example, Collectivist/Egalitarianism Sabotages Human Potential.)
