The President of Brazil has let the cat out of the bag. President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva says that unions and workers should be taking better advantage of the current financial crisis to form "a new world economic order." What kind of world order would that be? One based on fairness. One where the workers and the unions would dominate political policy and make sure that the evil rich corporations that provide their jobs don't make money.
He made this statement at the International Labor Organization summit, a gathering of United Nations members. He says, "This is an exceptional opportunity for all of you to think and develop proposals together with the employers and business leaders so that we can change definitely the relations between state and civil society and so that we can build our countries with much more fairness and much more solidarity."
Sadly, there are a lot of people ... including some in our own government ... that would agree with him.
We can only hope this country wakes up before Obama ruins it.
