It doesn't seem very insightful considering that workers can still strike, unions still exist, individuals can own factories, farmers can still vote and politicians can still talk of doom and gloom (presumably unless you decide to re-elect them).

Did you see the difference between an employee union and a state endorsed union?

Our politicians would've been neutralized by the citizens if they implemented the plans at lightning speed. It takes time to erode your liberties. The Obama/Bush team started in 2000 and are still working at it, slowly enough for you not to notice.

I didn't realize that all employee unions in the United States have been replaced with state endorsed unions.

The union bosses are in bed with politicians, more so now than ever before. The union employee's long term prospects are never really considered.
