Title: **AFL-CIO Union Boss Trumka: Spend More, Mr. President** Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on August 26, 2011, 07:21:58 AM http://blog.heritage.org/2011/08/25/union-boss-trumka-spend-more-mr-president/
Quote Trumka’s grievances about “not enough spending” come even though President Obama has already won a $787 stimulus bill laden with infrastructure spending, called for another $50 billion to be spent on the same policy last summer, has made pledges, promises, and plans to spend billions on building bridges and roads throughout his presidency, and now appears poised to do the same once again in September. And despite all the spending, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projects that unemployment will remain above 8 percent until 2014. |
