Obama’s margin of victory in Florida was so tiny that without labor support, its 29 electoral votes would almost certainly have gone to Romney. Not only did unions deliver the electoral college majority to Obama, but if union voters had given Obama only a small majority, then Romney would have won the popular vote as well.
Now with the arrogance of the Ancien Régime of France, whose members led luxurious and insulated lives built on the work and sweat of their countrymen, Obama is effectively telling the growing class of poor Americans whose drop from the middle class is the consequence of leftist elitism that instead of recharging the American economy by real means — using our vast amounts of coal and also oil and gas to create employment, providing federal and state governments with income (royalties) which do not require taxes, and making reducing the flow of dollars out of our nation — that they should be content with the panacea of windmills, solar energy, and other impractical schemes.
