Apatosaurus (a.k.a. Brontsaurus) Goes Extinct

DATELINE: Today

Big Labor On Verge Of Bankruptcy - May Follow Apatosaurus

The top story in the June 11th Wall Street Journal Opinion Journal:

Unions in Debt

Big labor has big financial problems it wants to keep quiet.

Andy Stern even bragged about spending over $60 million over to elect (buy) Barack Obama. WSJ tells us:

The SEIU and AFL-CIO have been spending so much on politics that they're going deeply into debt.

And? We already know that, what's new?

Tom Buffenbarger, President of the International Machinist and Aerospace Workers and an AFL-CIO finance committee member warns:

"If we are not careful, insolvency may be right around the corner,"

I'm sorry Tom, is that the good news or the bad news?

Mother Nature decided she'd had enough of Apatosaurus and the species vanished almost overnight. Another dinosaur, the labor union, has been sewing the seeds of it's own destruction for quite a while and may be poised to follow Apatosaurus. Watch out boys, Mother Nature is a BITCH!
