Will Team Biden Weaponize Workers’ Pensions?
Big Labor abuse of worker pension and benefit funds as a means of advancing union bosses’ self-aggrandizing policy objectives is a familiar phenomenon.
The spokesman for the NLRB, in trying to defend the agency’s decision to punish Boeing for moving part of its operations to a Right to Work state, does the agency no favors trying to defend the indefensible.
According to The Street, NLRB Spokeswoman Nancy Cleeland said, “We are not telling Boeing they can’t build planes in South Carolina. We are talking about one specific piece of work: three planes a month. If they keep those three planes a month in Washington, there is no problem.”
It’s clear the bureaucrats at the NLRB now admit they believe they can mirco-manage the operations of America’s companies. Keep digging, NLRB! Keep digging.

What impact does handing a union monopoly power to deal with your employer on matters concerning your pay, benefits, and work rules have on your pay?
Wherever Big Labor wields the power to collect forced union dues, union bosses funnel a large share of the confiscated money into efforts to elect and reelect business-bashing politicians. Employment growth tends to lag as a consequence.
