The implosion of SEIU, among other like unions, will be a glorious day indeed.

Perhaps, but @ what cost. 30,000 in line in GA for more Gov't handouts was a sad site of the failure of almost 50 years of Gov't largess that did not empower but enslave. By extension, does the likes of an SEIU pension (which is an annuity no matter how you slice it) a step up, but just another tether against liberty?

Tangenital to this is the potential brilliance of Kemp/Roth, which were the Reagan tax cuts and the introductions of IRA's and 401k's for the masses. Maybe Reagan totally got that if it our money it totally takes away power from the likes of the unions via their pensions that make you "captive"...

What concerns me is only by grace whether economic or Divine that the likes of GM and the Federal Gov't continue to run as Debtors (i.e. the Weimar Republic Syndrome) because our creditors have to much to loose. Not so with the likes of SEIU, I am sure these folks will let them implode, but it may get ugly.
