 <title>Did Big Labor Break the Bank in the 2008 Elections?</title>
 <link>http://www.nrtw.org/en/blog/big-labor-wallowing-political-debt-6102009</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;
To readers who followed Big Labor&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;/blog/wall-street-journal-department-justice-invest82908&quot;&gt;record-breaking political contributions&lt;/a&gt; last election, it should come as no surprise that the AFL-CIO and the SEIU officials are hinting at big union debts. Of course, so long as the union bossses have a basically unrestricted right to to collect (and jack up) forced union dues, they will not have trouble raising revenue until most American jobs are destroyed.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
But don&#039;t be surprised to see the union bosses lining up at the federal bailout trough (&lt;a href=&quot;/en/blog/dont-bail-out-united-auto-workers-11132008&quot;&gt;again&lt;/a&gt;) to exploit the situation.  Here&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124458836591599769.html&quot;&gt;the &lt;i&gt;Wall Street Journal&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;:
