Unions worked tirelessly for President Obama throughout his campaigns, and were the mouthpiece for his signature legislation - Obamacare.Unfortunately for Unions (or fortunatley, depending on your point of view), Obamacare is now a reality, and Unions were told recently that they no longer will be exempt from the law.Some may not be aware of this, but quite often unions (especially in the manufacturing sector), have their own healthcare plans. What that means, is that unions are not on the company's healthcare plan, but they negotiate their own plan, and the company pays for it. Now, the unions will either have to get on the company plan like everyone else, or in some cases (if the firm has less than 50 employees), they may be dropped altogether and forced onto Obama's "healthcare exchange".All this means is that whatever Obama promised unions, he just rescinded. Obama giveth, Obama taketh away.But hey, thanks for working to get him elected and lobbying fore the healthcare mandate, pardon, tax.Useful idiots indeed.
