[QUOTE="Atomic_Smurf, post: 1140008, member: 46684"] I think your underestimating the influence that the Teamsters have on big labor & the influence big labor has on public opinion & the influence public opinion has on public policy. The Teamsters have the power to sway our elected officials which was the reason they PUBLICLY supported Obamacare. The roofers & allied workers publicly supported the healthcare law as well & have turned around to call for its full repeal or overhaul recently because of the hit multi employer unions are taking. If other unions would get on board we could make some progress but it appears that you personally would rather our members stay ignorant of what is taking place in favor of the inevitable single payer system you've expressed your support for in the past.
