58. Job Well Done...indeed!

"In a Thursday interview, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel argued that rather than recoiling against Obama,
business leaders should be grateful for his support on at least a half-dozen counts:

*"his advocacy of greater international trade and education reform open markets despite union skepticism;"
(Union Busting, especially targeting the Teacher's Union and Privatization of Public Education)

*"his rejection of calls from some quarters to nationalize banks during the financial meltdown;"
(money for nothing. They could have used the bailout to leverage concessions and regulations like they did with the Auto Industry)

*"the rescue of the automobile industry,"
(Union Busting, major concessions from LABOR, none from management)

*"the fact that the overhaul of health care preserved the private delivery system"
(preserved and enriched the people who broke Health Care, and even this statement is a LIE. They "preserved" the For Profit Health Insurance Industry, and even Mandated Customers and Profits for said industry);

*the fact that billions in the stimulus package benefited business with lucrative new contracts,
(targeted the already rich)

*"and that financial regulation reform will take away the uncertainty that existed with a broken, pre-crash regulatory apparatus."
(Everybody KNOWS that re-instating Glass-Steagall was THE best fix)
