Remember Andy Stern?

Former President of the SEIU and bad boy poster child (and pinata) of the anti union crowd, now works for Big Pharma. He's profiled in this piece at BeyondChron, which portrays him as a big fan of China's explosive state driven growth there, a blamer who notes the time of free markets is over, and by implication a tacit supporter of repressive working conditions.

Global sales boost GM

For the first time in its 102 year history, General Motors sold more vehicles in China than in the United States. GM was narrowly edged by Toyota as the world's largest automaker, a position held by GM for 76 years until 2007 when Toyota took the lead. GM sales were up 29% in China, 12.4% in Russia and 10.4% in Brazil.
