Why is Obama always surrounding himself with socialists? Anita Dunn, Craig Becker, and Andy Stern...Andy Stern is now going to help oversee fiscal responsibility for the federal government.
This is Andy Stern, at a speech he gave the SEIU in Puerto Rico in 2008.
Unions, while somewhat irrelevant these days, still has a place to collectively bargain with employers for better wages and the assurance of safe working conditions. What Andy Stern is doing has nothing to do with that. His only function is to coerce people to join a union to amass pools of capital from dues and pension funds. The issue is what he does with that money pool, like running his campaign to turn the US into Canada with health care.
His emphasis on redistributive wealth implies government determining through its coercive power that it can enslave one group of people to support another group of people. In addition, his demonization of corporations vs the people and relation to global governance implies national sovereignty is not necessary.
His overall plan to lead by the government and not necessarily the private sector is pretty much as socialist as it gets. Global governance, a borderless planet, redistribution of wealth, or government controlled economy (social/state control of the means of production) you have the government stepping over its bounds to take control of the health and wealth...that is socialism.
So remember the people who surround this President like Carol Browner, Anita Dunn, Craig Becker, Andy Stern, Van Jones...all a bunch of socialists in their varying degrees of pushing their agendas, all leaning towards more government control overall.
