Ronald Reagan: "Where Free Unions and Collective Bargaining are Forbidden, Freedom is Lost"

from Washington's Blog. [9:55m video]

This blogger does good by digging up this fine example of what passes for the "democratic" process here in the US. The ruling class hires personable speech-givers like Reagan, Clinton, and Obama to pander to the dreams of working people while continuing business as usual or worse--stepping up the attacks on working people. I wonder which political operative wrote this speech.

Working people have to understand that Presidents are essentially puppets, and the people who pull their strings always function behind the staged scenes. They may be likable people themselves, but some weakness in their character permits them to be used by others in exchange for the fame of being "President".  What they really are, are super-salesmen for the financial-industrial-military complex.

The Reagan administration was laced with the rising fascist-Zionist operatives like Paul Wolfowitz, Doug Feith, and Richard Perle. Under their influence and others of their ilk, policies and activities were crafted that resulted in the invasions of Middle East countries. Alan Greenspan was appointed Chairman of the Federal Reserve, and his bubble economic policies caused the huge economic collapse.
