Why do Union people keep putting this clown in office? Work hard, make profit, share in that profit by keeping together. What business is it of the government how much our company pays for employee's benefits?

nowhere special
When Obamacare was forced through into law the unions were promised they wouldn't be subject to that 40% tax (which is logical since non profit plans get no subsidies). The media tries to make it sound like private union plans were getting a special break by not being taxed without mentioning they also would get no subsidies. Its not like public sector plans (which Obama DID give special treatment). Another broken promise. And union leaders sold out the members by supporting it until now when the bills are coming due.
