So a talk show radio host just said unions are for communism

Appearing Monday morning on CBS, Obama’s jobs council head and the CEO of GE Jeffrey Immelt said that one thing that “actually works” is “state-run Communism” in China.

After host Charlie Rose brought up the “growth rate” of China falling from double digits to about eight percent, Immelt chimed in.

“Look, I think it’s good for China,” he said. “To a certain extent, Charlie, 11 to 12 percent is unsustainable. You end up getting too much stimulus or a misallocation of resources. They are much better off working on a more consumer-based economy, less dependent on exports, driving technology and innovation harder. Really, the one thing that actually works, state run communism may not be your cup of tea, but their government works.”

“They get things done,” Rose responded.

Actually, American unions and American communism go hand in hand.
At the Haymarket riots red flag was used.
All the communist countries of the 20th century had red flags.

Some unions are certainly organizers, and the unions bosses and dues go to those causes. Doesnt mean all the workers support this, or that there's no need for unions. I've been carpenter's union and it is no more communist organizer than voting democrat or republican.

Let me guess......A-hole Jones?

Fuck that guy.
