The Koch brothers are going to do everything they can to kill the unions. When will the Unions start fighting back?



Dear God, Please rapture the Koch Brothers on up to heaven early. Please.

1. Thanks for the link.

WI is becoming the testbed which will answer the question of whether there is any political defense against candidates with nefarious purposes and unlimited funds behind them.

3. And with the way court rulings are going, I don't hold

much hope for judiciary relief. Wisconsin IS the test case and if the unions EVER expect to become revelant, they need to become MUCH more militant in their defense of the workers.

Of course, in a lot of the unions the "leaders" are part of the bourgeoisie with a vested interest in KEEPING the system EXACTLY the way it is. They're union bureaucrats and bureaucrats are ALWAYS conservative.

If the unions fight this, it will HAVE to come from the bottom up. The workers themselves will have to organize into councils and FORCE the bureaucracy into fighting.

6. I keep waiting for some people's candidates to bubble up to the surface!

5. The Kochs have dictator attitudes.

They are trying to impose their worldview on everyone else. They do NOT believe in democracy.
I cannot stand them.
