Here is a piece attacking the so-called Employee Free Choice Act (more accurately, the Dragoon Workers Into Unions Act) in a surprising place — Newsweek. The editor who let that in will probably be unemployed soon.

Unions impede productive efficiency and actually do very little to accomplish their stated goal — to redistribute wealth between business owners and employees. (As if that were a good thing; less capital means lower productivity and wages in the long run.) They do, however, produce one thing: campaign contributions for politicians who cozy up to them. The EFCA is just another example of how the Obamacrats sacrifice long-run economic benefits in order to have short-run political advantages.
