"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Attack on Freedom of Association
"At the end of 2011 the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), dominated by recess-appointed, pro-union members, voted to restrict severely the time that employers have to make their cases against unionization before representation elections. Opponents of the decision have called it a rule for “ambush” elections. Unions want only their pro-unionization arguments to be heard, and the NLRB is happy to help. So are many members of the Senate. Although NLRB regulations can be set aside by majority vote in both houses of Congress, on April 25 the Senate blocked an attempt to override the NLRB’s anti-free-speech rule."
