Put this book on your Christmas list
America’s public-sector unions have transformed the landscape of our political system with major implications for taxpayers. In Shakedown, Steven Malanga shows how unions have aligned themselves with politicians and activists to grow government and increase public spending. The bill for this growth is now coming due, and Malanga chronicles how it has all but bankrupted once-rich states like New Jersey and California. From undermining welfare reform in the 1990’s to the War on Poverty to slashing mortgage standards, Malanga provides a comprehensive summary of how these groups impact you and why we need constructive change more than ever.

Just another example of the differences between net producers and net consumers.
Previously, I discussed my belief that this is a moral problem based on covetousness, lust and greed. We must solve that moral problem before we can fully solve the problems that these people cause.
However, there is something that is never mentioned on these blogs.
Bankers Control.
As bad as union parasites are to our economy, usury is more dangerous. We pay bankers far more money in interest, and it gives us no return, than we do to support the bloated government that the unions demand.
Until we get the Wall Street crowd out of our money supply (eliminate the private fed and fiat currency), nothing else will fully solve the economic problems.
And this is the major problem with the Republican and Democrat Parties in New Jersey. They keep selecting candidates who have no understanding of the Federal Reserve or how it has given us an unworkable, unconstitutional debt money system.
