LBO News from Doug Henwood

Doug Henwood on labor in l'USA

Unions spend scores of millions in every election cycle, and send their members out to campaign and round up voters on election day, and get little or nothing in return for all their efforts. This is one of the tragedies of American politics: organized labor has to choose between a party that tolerates their presence but basically ignores their interests, and one that wants to destroy them. Some choice, eh?

still....

There can never be any better politics in this country until there’s a rebirth of the labor movement.
