# Unionize Everything > A deep dive into the hidden unionization clauses of the national health care bill and the systemic inefficiencies of the US Postal Service. - **Show:** [The No Agenda Show](https://search.noagendashow.net/index.md) - **Episode:** 129 - **Published:** 2009-09-10 - **Length:** 1h 32m - **Topics:** HR 3200, [Unionization](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/unionization.md), Karzai family, [Postal Service](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/postal-service.md), Liquid bombers, DHS complex, Opium trade - **Web page:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/129-unionize-everything ## About this episode President Barack Obama’s address to a joint session of Congress serves as a flashpoint for a broader critique of legislative overreach and political theater. While Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton donned matching red power suits, the underlying policy in HR 3200 contains Section 225A, a provision that could grant Secretary Kathleen Sebelius the power to mandate unionization for hundreds of thousands of health care workers. This move, heavily supported by the SEIU, signals a shift toward a corporatist model that mirrors the themes of Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged. Beyond the Capitol, the US Postal Service maintains thousands of idle employees in resource rooms to avoid layoffs mandated by union contracts, even as the agency seeks a $7 billion taxpayer bailout. In the UK, the retrial of the liquid bomb plot suspects resulted in convictions only after prosecutors bypassed British evidence laws by sourcing Yahoo emails from American servers. Meanwhile, the war in Afghanistan continues to enrich the Karzai family, with Mahmoud and Ahmed Wali Karzai allegedly controlling the nation’s cement, automotive, and opium industries under the protection of coalition forces. Technical glitches plagued the evening as the presidential teleprompter suffered multiple flubs during the high-definition broadcast. The program also highlights the absurdity of NBC News selling Obama-themed dolls in their Manhattan retail store while attempting to maintain journalistic neutrality. From the high costs of private aviation to the ground-breaking of a $3.4 billion Department of Homeland Security complex, the reality of the national debt is contrasted against the rise of private military contractors like Burger King and Pizza Hut in war zones. ## Chapters Each chapter's transcript is at its own link.

Northern California Weather, Travel Illnesses, and Airplane Diseases (0:01–3:15) The hosts open the program discussing the unusually warm 99-degree weather in Northern Silicon Valley and San Francisco. One host describes returning from travel with a fever, leading to a discussion on the health risks of frequent flying and the tendency for travelers to develop immunity to common "airplane diseases" over time.

Congressional Hygiene, Fashion, and Red Power Suits at Obama Speech (3:15–6:34) Observations of the presidential address to Congress focus on the perceived lack of hygiene regarding the H1N1 virus as politicians engaged in hugging and kissing. The visual presentation in high definition highlights the specific fashion choices of female politicians, noting that figures like Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Kathleen Sebelius all wore red "power suits" or dresses.

Presidential Address Traditions, Escort Committees, and Speaker Mannerisms (6:35–11:13) The formal traditions of the joint session of Congress are criticized for causing a 15-minute delay, a point emphasized by a clip from comedian Dennis Miller. Detailed attention is given to the process of escorting the President into the chamber, the dual-announcer introduction, and the distracting side-talk between Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden during the speech.

Media Coverage Depth, Katie Couric, and the "What Bill" Sign (11:14–15:25) Media coverage of the health care speech is characterized as shallow, comparing Katie Couric's CBS commentary to E! Entertainment's Oscar coverage. While the President's performance is described as a successful "branding" exercise, an audience member was spotted holding a sign asking "What Bill?", highlighting the lack of a specific legislative text being discussed.

Unionization Provisions in Health Care Bill HR 3200 (15:27–18:08) An analysis of the Wall Street Journal op-ed by Mark Mix suggests that Section 225A of health care bill HR 3200 grants Secretary Kathleen Sebelius the authority to regulate health care workers. This provision could potentially force hundreds of thousands of doctors and nurses into unions, explaining the strong support for the bill from the SEIU.

Personal Experiences with SAG-AFTRA and Union Inefficiency (18:12–21:58) A host reflects on personal memberships in SAG and AFTRA, describing the "catch-22" of entering the entertainment industry and the standardized contracts provided by unions. The discussion concludes that while unions once served a purpose against management, they often become bloated organizations that drive up costs without delivering proportional value.

Employee Free Choice Act and the Elimination of Secret Ballots (21:59–25:29) The Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), also known as the "card check" bill, is discussed as a move to eliminate secret ballots in union voting. The hosts compare this legislative trend to the themes in Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged," arguing that it represents a shift toward corporatism or fascism by allowing government and unions to dictate business operations.

US Postal Service Deficits and "Resource Room" Holding Pens (25:30–28:00) The US Postal Service is reported to be keeping thousands of idle employees in "resource rooms" or "holding pens" because union contracts prevent layoffs despite a 15% drop in mail volume. This practice is framed as a way for the Obama administration to keep unemployment numbers from rising while the agency seeks a $7 billion taxpayer bailout.

Teleprompter Errors and Partisan Reactions During Presidential Speech (28:02–31:30) Technical observations of the President's speech note several teleprompter "flubs" and repeated lines, attributed to last-minute script changes. The visual contrast between the constant standing ovations from Democrats and the stoic, arms-folded reaction of Republicans like John Boehner is highlighted as a product of slanted network camera work.

Public University Analogy and Tort Reform Proposals (31:30–33:50) The President's use of public universities as an analogy for a public health care option is analyzed, with the hosts noting that both sectors often involve high costs. The speech's mention of tort reform is also addressed, specifically the idea of requiring plaintiffs in frivolous malpractice lawsuits to pay the defendant's legal fees.

Ted Kennedy's Posthumous Letter and the "Mass Vibe" of Politics (33:50–37:11) The inclusion of a posthumous letter from Ted Kennedy in the presidential speech is dismissed as a staged emotional anecdote. This leads to a broader philosophical critique of a "mass vibe" in American culture that promises universal care and harmony, which the hosts argue is an unrealistic rejection of the natural "winners and losers" in life.

Obama School Speech Controversy and Media Double Standards (37:12–41:21) A comparison is drawn between the 2009 Obama speech to schoolchildren and a similar 1991 event by George H.W. Bush. While the media praised Obama's address, the Washington Post and Democrats heavily criticized Bush's event at the time, even calling for congressional investigations into its funding and production.

International Health Care Experiences in the UK and Netherlands (41:21–45:21) A host shares personal experiences with the UK's National Health Service (NHS) and the Dutch health system, noting long wait times for surgeries in Britain despite cheap medication. The discussion covers the 2008 shift to private insurance in the Netherlands and the reality of "death panels" where elderly patients may be denied care based on utility.

Liquid Bomber Trial and the Use of Intercepted Yahoo Emails (45:21–48:40) The retrial of the "liquid bombers" in the UK resulted in three convictions after a previous hung jury. The legal breakthrough involved a workaround to British evidence laws, allowing prosecutors to introduce emails obtained from Yahoo servers in the United States rather than using prohibited direct intercepts.

Analysis of Alleged Terrorist Code Words and Bomb Feasibility (48:42–55:03) The prosecution's interpretation of emails between suspects in the liquid bomb plot is scrutinized, where everyday terms like "taxis," "aftershave," and "rapping concert" were alleged to be codes for terrorism. The hosts question the scientific feasibility of creating a significant explosion using small amounts of hydrogen peroxide and AA batteries as described in court.

Charlie Sheen, Alex Jones, and 9/11 Skepticism (55:04–58:47) Actor Charlie Sheen teamed up with Alex Jones to release a "fictional" transcript of an interview with President Obama regarding 9/11 evidence. The stunt aimed to draw attention to perceived inaccuracies in the official 9/11 Commission Report, specifically regarding aviation and the collapse of World Trade Center Building 7.

Small Aircraft Incidents and Obama Merchandise at NBC (1:00:37–1:03:17) The hosts note a high frequency of small aircraft incidents over a three-day period. They also criticize NBC News for selling Obama-themed merchandise like dolls and mugs at their Manhattan store, arguing that such retail activity compromises the network's perceived journalistic neutrality.

National Debt Commercials, Currency Devaluation, and Ben Bernanke (1:03:18–1:07:16) A poorly produced commercial from "Defeat the Debt" featuring children pledging allegiance to the national debt prompts a discussion on the economy. The hosts argue that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is following a blueprint that will lead to further devaluation of the dollar, rising oil prices, and a shift toward gold.

Afghanistan War Strategy and the Karzai Family Business (1:07:16–1:11:00) The war in Afghanistan is described as a long-term conflict that may last another 15 years. The hosts examine the influence of President Hamid Karzai's brothers, Mahmoud and Ahmed Wali Karzai, who reportedly control the country's cement industry, Toyota dealerships, and the opium drug trade while being protected by coalition forces.

Opium Commodities, Afghan Cuisine, and Pakistan Drone Strikes (1:11:00–1:13:58) Opium production in Afghanistan is discussed as a commoditized industry tracked by Bloomberg, with production reportedly up 22%. The hosts suggest the US government is hesitant to pressure the Karzai administration due to reliance on drug supply chains and military logistics, while the conflict increasingly spills into Pakistan via drone strikes.

Private Contractors and Fast Food Franchises in War Zones (1:13:58–1:16:23) The privatization of military logistics is criticized, with the hosts noting that traditional military "KP duty" has been replaced by expensive private catering contracts. Observations from Iraq include the presence of fully branded Burger King and Pizza Hut franchises in the Green Zone and at Basra airport, contributing to the high cost of the war.

Think Tank Proliferation and the $3.4 Billion DHS Complex (1:16:27–1:19:25) The hosts mock the abundance of "institutes" and think tanks that influence government policy. They highlight the breaking of ground on a new $3.4 billion Department of Homeland Security complex, which Secretary Janet Napolitano defended as necessary for holding meetings and building a unified "DHS culture."

Listener Contributions and the "ByteMarkz" Producer Credits (1:19:25–1:24:05) The program acknowledges various financial contributions from "producers" in Ankara, Turkey; Minneapolis; Victoria, Australia; and Hampshire, England. Specific mention is made of a company called ByteMarkz in Honolulu, as the hosts encourage continued support through their value-for-value model.

Private Aviation Costs and the Value-for-Value Model (1:24:06–1:26:42) A discussion on the costs of private flying reveals that a trip to Las Vegas burns roughly 50 gallons of aviation fuel, making it significantly more expensive than commercial travel. The hosts reiterate their refusal to take traditional advertisers or subscriptions, arguing that it would corrupt the show's pacing and content.
