Like his old boss, Joe Biden will weaponize America’s bureaucracies.
Biden’s victory hardly means that voters want a rerun of the failed policies of the Obama years.
"Over the next few years, Democrats will try and impose some of their worst policies through regulation. Let’s revisit a few episodes of Bureaucrats Gone Wild, a Barack Obama production, to get a sense of what Biden’s reboot of Obama-era policies will look like.
"Episode one: The National Labor Relations Board’s (NLRB) effort to reorganize the U.S. economy in its 2015 Browning-Ferris Industries decision.
"Under the rule announced by the Board’s Democrats, if Business A by any means indirectly controls any of the terms or conditions of work done by employees of Business B, then A may be deemed a “joint employer” of B’s employees.
"Sayonara to subcontracting, outsourcing, and other third-party intermediate business arrangements, which liberal liturgy, as expressed in books like David Weil’s The Fissured Workplace, condemns as evil capitalist schemes allowing large firms to offload their responsibilities to workers.
"Browning-Ferris was also about Big Macs: Richard Griffin, the agency’s top lawyer, needed a new weapon in his war on McDonald’s — a joint project with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), whose Fight for $15 unionizing drive portrayed fast food workers as slave laborers." . . .
Do not assume laws from government are made by wise, informed legislators. Just know they are made to satisfy the narrow interests of leftist factions. TD
