Ghosts of Jefferson

Before anyone gets all teary-eyed about the NLRB under Clinton, I suggest attempting to read the typing of Clinton's NLRB head Bill Gould on display in his alleged book, Labored Relations.

I paid $35 for this utterly impenetrable piece of crap. The only convincing portrait which emerges from this thoroughly defective product is (unintentionally) that of the author as a pigheaded, self-aggrandizing fool who can't disguise the fact that he has only himself to blame for a consistent pattern of failure.

Btw, every union person I have talked to has told me that they fought just as hard to keep cases out of the NLRB under Clinton as they had previously. From reading the few coherent paragraphs in this book, one can see why.

It's for sale to the highest bidder.

Contact me on or off line.

John
