Obama to the Business Roundtable: Health Care Reform Will Be Good for Business

from ABC News. I am posting this article to emphasize who the real rulers are in the US. The Business Roundtable is the most important formal organization of the US ruling class. (For an excellent examination of ruling class organizations, see this.) They are Obama's bosses. They are the people who really rule this country. Forget about Congress, the Presidency, the Supreme Court, the Constitution, etc--this is where most key decisions are really decided. That is why Obama went and spoke to them, because without their support nothing happens--and nothing much has been happening for the public benefit under Obama's Presidency, or any other administration for that matter.
