I think it's pretty obvious that when they handed out smarts, Nancy Pelosi was at the end of the line. In fact, she may have gone to some other address and missed out completely. But, since she's still in Congress, a magnificent brain-trust in itself, press folks happily report the inanities that come out of her mouth.
She recently made a speech to union workers at the MGM Grand Convention Center in Las Vegas, saying that Democrats stood in sharp contrast to what she calls the "anti-worker agenda" of the GOP. "For months in Ohio, Wisconsin, and states nationwide, Americans have seen Republican governors and legislators attack teachers and public servants. We've seen workers, union and non-union alike, inspire the nation to fight back."
Her problem is that she doesn't understand what work is all about and that these "workers" she so strongly supports don't merit the title.
If nothing else, Republicans focus on the economy, doing everything they can to insure growth and productivity. And that's where the rub comes in. Because the aim of union workers, and particularly teachers, is to be able to grab as much as they can from coffers while doing as little work-wise as they can. That's why it takes two or three protected union members, or more, to do the job of one stand-alone employee. Beyond that, unionistas want their incomes and benefits to go on into perpetuity, despite the fact that they're breaking the backs of whoever's payroll they were on.
So, Ms Pelosi ought to have someone read her a book on basic economics which explains that businesses eaten alive by non-productive costs sooner or later simply have to fold. And those having no control over sub-standard employees are doomed to failure, its only a matter of time. And if she wants glaring, banner-sized proof of the premise, all she has to look at the condition of those entities controlled by unions today, where public schools and union shops produce worthless results and protected non-performer's lack of effort on the job is draining the system dry.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
