Early Friday morning the Wisconsin Assembly voted to pass a bill to strip union workers of their rights to collective bargaining. The bill will now pass to the State Senate for a vote. Minority Democrats are still standing firm and holding out in Illinois in a show of support for union workers.

      March 25th will be the hundredth anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. Such an appropriate time for the extremely corrupt to attack unions. What Walker seems to want is a trip back to the good old days before unions. That golden era of child labor, appalling working conditions, slave wages and the very real possibility of getting killed on an average workday.

      We need to send a clear message to him that we will not allow the workers of America to be sacrificed for the sake of the interest of billionaires. The economic woes are the fault of one entity and that is Wall Street and rather then allowing them to reap bonuses, they should be fined heavily to prevent everyone else from having to suffer.
