Private unions yes, public no. Are you appalled at the billion dollars Obama is looking to raise and SPEND on a damn campaign? I mean how can you sit here and whine about 9.6 million when Obama plans to waste a billion during these hard times.
Interesting that you are willing to turn a perfectly blind eye to how much the Republican challengers will spend trying to win the Republican presidential nomination and then challenge for the presidency in these "hard times".

I see the hypocrisy.
But where is the outrage?
Has any of them indicated they will be raising over $1B, or are you just pretending things to be true that arent?
Years ago, a business owner rewarded the hard working in their company. Now, the CEOs just reward themselves!
I take it you support strict border security, proactive enforcement of immigration laws, immediate deportation of any and all illegals and the end of guest worker programs so US workers can enjoy the respect and compensation they deserve.
Just curious, would you defend union CONTRACTS in the same manner?
That's a real knee-slapper.
I guffawed and scared my coworker.

Didn't the R USSC make corporations "people" in our election process?
I didn't hear whining about that, either.

No, they were always "people", the USSC just made laws banning them from excercising their rights illegal..

Has nothing to do with being a Democrat or Republican, do you really think Democrats dont have corporations and corporate supporters? I now return you to your "I hate Republicans" dribble..
One of the companies I used to work for, sends their employees on a full paid expense vacation somewhere in the world every year.. They have about 1,000 employees world wide, and they get together yearly for a big huge celebration. They spared no expense either..
Entertainers and athletes make many times what coaches and assistants make.
Same principle.
Those with talent earn and hire people to work for them.
What's so hard to understand?
General managers of sports organizations do not make many times what the sports atheletes make - and that is what the CEO is comparable to. The CEO is a glorified manager, who has managed to claw his way to the top of the management ranks. He is not the originator or founder of the company, and he does not represent a commodity that people are willing to pay money to see, ie, professional atheletes. He is a MANAGER, pure and simple, and is not worth more that the product he manages.
