Peter, can you elaborate on Sweden? Given the added problems workers face with their savings going down the toilet, now is a good time for union leaders to get more vocal about repeal, instead of having closed door meetings with the likes of Goldman Sachs CEO Hank Paulson (who in a speech last year called 'corporate globalization a major profit opportunity for Goldman'). Nader's been rightly calling for the repeal of Taft-Hartley for years.
